Business with a Heart: Our Ministry Visit to Taiwan Adventist Hospital
At BBD, we believe that the true measure of leadership is the ability to serve others. Recently, our faculty took a break from the classroom and traveled to Taichung to visit the Taiwan Adventist Hospital (TAH). It was a day where business students became messengers of hope.
The Mission Behind the Trip Our department is built on the values of the Taiwan Adventist College: heart, head, and hands. While we spend most of our time developing our “heads” for the business world, this trip to Taichung was all about the “heart.” We wanted to share the warmth of our BBD family with patients, staff, and families who were going through challenging times.
Center Stage
The Skit After weeks of rehearsals between classes, we were finally ready to perform. We prepared a special skit designed to bring a smile to everyone’s face. The story focused on themes of resilience, faith, and the importance of supporting one another—values we live by every day in our department. Watching the patients lean forward in their chairs and hearing the soft laughter of children in the lobby made every hour of practice worth it. In that moment, we weren’t just students; we were performers with a purpose.
Voices of Hope
The Songs Music has a way of healing where words fail. Following the skit, our group gathered to sing several songs. We chose melodies that were peaceful yet uplifting, filling the hospital halls with harmony. Whether it was the soft strumming of a guitar or the synchronized voices of our bilingual choir, the atmosphere in the room shifted. You could see the tension leave people’s shoulders as they closed their eyes to listen.
Lessons Learned in Taichung
This visit taught us more about “human relations” than any textbook ever could. We learned that a simple song or a short play can be a powerful tool for connection. As business students, we realized that empathy is the most important soft skill we can possess.
We left Taichung with a profound sense of gratitude. Being part of the BBD family means more than studying together—it means serving together.
