Who Will You Be: Northern Arizona University

Students at Northern Arizona University trained on the Who Will You Be at a nearby church yesterday-- looks like they'll be using it on campus soon!


Red Cup: Jackson State

Yes, Red Cup is being used for NSO (New Student Outreach) this year on the campuses that didn't use it last year and one of those is Jackson State, where a student became a christian today at the Red Cup proxe station. Praise God with us!

Who Will You Be: It's Go time!

Hey everybody, it's here, it's finally here! This week is the first week of New Student Outreach on campuses across the country! Our Who Will You Be campaign finally gets is debut with real, brand-new freshmen on campus. And boy is it ever: we've printed more than 300 panels (there are 4 in a set) and sent then to 57 different campuses. Courtney (our newest designer) and I have been working hard posting supporting materials on the web, answering phones and emailing staff. I can't wait for stories to come in!

Please pray for staff and students arriving on campus this week-- that new students would consider finding their identity in Christ and serving his Kingdom, rather than in empty and ultimately unfulfilling ways. Campus can become a difficult place for those who've built their identity around smarts or success or how many friends they have. Like the prodigal son, the sooner we realize we have a father who's love doesn't change, the better. Let's pray that, as freshmen leave physical home for the first time, they gain a spiritual one this week.
