Back In Action!

This has been the most action packed week we have had in a while! Here are some highlights of the first week back on campus....AND IN OUR NEW HOME!

1. We moved! We sent out a card with our new address that should arrive in your mailbox soon (if not already). It is amazing how much stuff accumulates over three years in an apartment. There was a lot of stuff to move from our small apartment to our new house. It is so good to be there! We've spent the past month painting and preparing the place. Now, we can relax and enjoy it.

2. We have been interviewing freshmen on campuses about their spiritual journey. These interviews were taken over their phone via text messaging. It has been interesting to hear the responses. Please pray for us as we continue to interview freshmen and interact with them.

3. I will be talking to the UA football team on Monday. I am hoping to start a small group with the team. Please pray for doors to open with these influential athletes on campus.

4. We are working to get permission to hit up the freshmen dining hall to continue to interview students. Since every freshman needs to eat, this is a key place in getting in contact with every one of them. Pray that we would get the permission we need to interview this group of students.

I found out yesterday that there was a third suicide at the very end of the last academic year. A freshman took his life off campus the day after graduation. Faculty and staff are tired and many are saying that they can't handle another year like last year. Please pray for this campus. Jesus is hope and we are here to share that! Thanks for partnering with us!
