GOSHEN, Ind. — Taylor Ermoian, a social work major from Hays, is serving at First Call for Help in Hutchinson as part of Goshen College’s summer-long Service Inquiry Program.

First Call for Help is a United Way organization that acts as a coordination center for necessary services and resources such as hygiene programs, medical assistance and educational initiatives. Ermoian is the son of Cheryl and Kyle Ermoian and attends Whitestone Mennonite Church.

Goshen College’s Service Inquiry Program gives students the opportunity to spend three months in a service agency with the goal of exploring the intersection of faith and vocation, while also developing skills for leadership. These goals are achieved through active participation, observation of others, intentional reflection and the tutelage of an on-site supervising mentor.
