Judson College senior Ja Rawng Lasi was honored in chapel Dec. 1 as a December graduate and a member of the chapel committee. She is the second Burmese student in Judson history and traces her spiritual ancestry to the work of Adoniram and Ann Judson, Baptist missionaries to Burma (now Myanmar) in the 19th century. Lasi has enjoyed speaking in many local churches about Baptist work in her native land. A psychology major, Lasi hopes to visit Burma this spring and then apply for an internship in public administration before enrolling in graduate school.
