Lives Blossoming on Campus

The new semester brought new resolutions with accountability! In January students were challenged to grow together as a witnessing community. They made renewed decisions to meet weekly for prayer, to read the Bible more closely, and to grow in honesty with each other, building community while testifying to the glory of God in their own lives. I’ve been blessed to help lead one of two resulting weekly prayer meetings. Join us in prayer wherever you are Tuesdays at 7pm if you’re able.

When one thing leads to another…

Saturday, March 24 was a cold, rainy day – perfect conditions for group bonding. I came to day 2 of a York Spring Retreat and spent the morning with 4 wired and sleep-deprived students. What began as small talk about rain and spring, lead to family stories, and then to shared advice for reflective living and carving out quiet time for God. I couldn’t see it in the moment, but one of these students was in flux. This conference was the fertile ground for the gospel to take root in Paul who became a Christian within the week. God works in mysterious ways. During the retreat, students were challenged to identify the things they’ve allowed to lead their lives instead of God. Students laid down these areas of their lives inviting God to lead and guide them. Praise God for these softened hearts. Let’s pray they continue to listen to God’s leading through the stress of finals.

Prayer Requests

•  Tuesdays currently hold Prayer Meetings and Bible Studies that are challenging the way students think about Christian community. Please pray this would be continue over the summer.

•  Camp Invitations: Pray 15 -20 students would decide to join us for worship, study and fellowship for a week after finals.

•  Financial and Prayer provision: We’ve raised $20,252 which leaves $6,543 to go as I hope to raise $26,795 to meet our full budget needs for the year. 

                 

On a Personal Note:

I’m getting married June 30! I’ve been blessed with the company of a wonderful, loving, Christlike man, Timothy Lester, who asked me to marry him last December.       

           

 

Thank you!
