Andrew Jacob
Groomsman
College: Stonehill College Height: 6'1" Weight: 205 In the basement of the Corr Res Hall at Stonehill College there was a Bible study taking place. Ten students packed into a college dorm room using the beds and whatever else they could find for seating. The year was 2010. After an hour long discussion over one of Paul's letters, Andrew, the leader of the Bible study asked if anyone in the room wanted to pray. Mickey, a fairly new believer in the faith, suggested "popcorn prayer" and others in the Bible study agreed. Annoyed Andrew thought, "who is this new guy in my Bible study," and it was a match made in heaven. Through Mickey's structured thinking and Andrew's wealth of charisma the two went on to lead one of the most successful Christian student movements ever at Stonehill College.
