The second weekend in December we had Christmas conference for all the cities here with teams and students. It was the second year that our city has attended and we were able to bring 5 students with us. We brought 3 men and 2 women. The men are all very spiritually interested, interested in knowing more, investigating more, and researching more. The 2 women that came were very different from each other. One is neither interested nor disinterested. She wanted to come to spend time with us and see what Christmas was about. The other girl is a student from Africa and she is a believer. For her the weekend was an encouragement and it challenged her to study her bible more and share her beliefs with her classmates.
It was encouraging for our team because we were able to see over 120 students from around this country praising God, desiring to grow closer to Him and know Him better, and wanting to spend time in a body of believers.
Its so easy to loose focus and think that what we do isn't making a difference. But in reality, God is at work here and just this weekend is evidence of that. He is constantly stirring in people's hearts a longing for Himself and we get the awesome privilege of sharing Truth, the amazing Love of Jesus and the beautiful Grace of God with students. God is most certainly at work! Praise Him!
