Varsity Athlete Ministry Launch

Pray for Samuel, Jessica, and Melissa as they launch Athletes in Action at Uvic.

They expect to meet with a group of athletes this Friday at 6pm to cast the vision of AIA, to encourage each other as athletes in Christ, and hopefully get some momentum through commitment and collaboration from other athletes.

May they share the love of Christ with many athletes this year!

(Below is a picture of Samuel, who first inquired about starting AIA at Uvic.)

Connecting to Camosun College

Since January, I've been coordinating the launch of Camosun's only Christian club. 

Two Camosun students came to our Emerge retreat and were deeply impacted. 

One of the students, Jeremy, was so blessed to be connected to Sunago through Camosun that he has now become the president for Sunago@Camosun, and is fully involved with what we do for Christ.

Today, Jeremy and I represented Christ at the Sunago booth at Camosun and we now have 54 students on our email list, whom we hope will join community in Christ.

Pray for our students as they gather tomorrow between 12-2 to get to know each other.

Discovering Christ, Inviting Others.

I'm very excited about this group!
Our Discovery Group on Thursday nights has grown, students have invited their friends to come and discover who Jesus is, and we are considering multiplying this group into 2 groups very soon.

Our content is found at multiplymovement.com (and scroll down for written materials).

Pray for our students to discover Christ and invite others to discover him too.

Thank you for helping fund our bible study resources. Your financial support is greatly helping us spread the name and glory of Christ through this campus.
