For security purposes, the names of places and people have been changed or omitted.
This summer, seven students from three major universities in a “closed” country along with several full-time “workers” participated in a strategy designed to impact “seekers.” These students and “workers” took the initiative to speak daily with travelers (going from Europe to their home countries).
After presenting the gospel to an elderly woman, one student recalled:
“When I told her that she could pray with me for salvation, she felt so happy and started to hug and kiss me. Then in her prayer, she opened her heart and accepted Jesus. She also decided to tell her family the whole story.”
The purpose in sending these students on this project is obviously to reach the “travelers,” but it is also to build movements on the campus at home. The Campus Ministry director from the sending country said:
“Every time . . . [this project] is held, it shifts our Campus Ministry forward . . . It shapes them [student leaders] into Christ-likeness, gives them boldness, changes their convictions and moves their hearts toward their neighbors and the entire world.”
In other words it helps build local movements of evangelism and discipleship.
You, as our partners in ministry are a part of this outreach, as well as the building of spiritual movements. The operational support “teams” for both the project and sending national ministry participated in training events that we have done.






Just so you know I did visit. Second trip. Good progress. Several folks at church have asked about you. Almost every Sunday somebody does, so I know that you are on a lot of prayerlists.
