Thank you

Thank you for anyone who supports me financially & prayerfully! Over the past 2 weeks, I've met with supporters and shared my vision with many people, and my heart is filled with thankfulness for you who really are a part of what God is doing on the college campus! I could not go if you did not send me.

Personally, I am learning how huge of an impact raising my own support has on my own faith. In the past 2 weeks, my boss, Thomas, asked me to pray for something much larger than I ever thought possible. I rolled my eyes but prayed with a mustard seed of faith- God answered that specific prayer and many more!!! God is growing my faith through this! Thank you for praying for my heart, and really that I would trust God more than anything.

I have to tell you of one encouraging thing that I got to do in Rutherford County- about a week ago, I was able to speak at a college praise and worship session at Adaville Baptist Church. It was SO ENCOURAGING!!!! I was welcomed in by families that I had never met before!! And, I met 2 college students who are doing beach projects- one with Campus Outreach Charlotte, and the other with Crusade in California. God really is reaching college students, even in our tiny town!! I was so encouraged and overjoyed- because I often hurt for students from our small town. I wonder if they ever get a change to grow and experience the joy that God has for us as Christians in true community and in following someone more mature than us in their faith? Until college, I had never experienced anything like the community and growth opportunities that I found in Campus Outreach. Pray for Ned and Chelsea as they grow this summer! Praise God for college ministries on the campuses in our nation!

A staggering statistic I heard on the radio about a month ago was that 85% of teens go to church, but only 15% have authentic relationships with Jesus. I am burdened for the young people of our nation. We must show them what it means to have true life in the person of Jesus Christ alone. I pray now for all the high school and college students who have heard the true gospel, that it would grow into fruit this very year, and for those who have not heard, that God would send more people to tell them. God would you start a revival in our nation in this next generation?

Eph 2:8-9

"For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— ⁹not by works, so that no one can boast."

Romans 10:13-15

for, "Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved."

¹⁴How, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them? ¹⁵And how can they preach unless they are sent? As it is written, "How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!"
