Weekend Update

Apologies for being late with this update to the blog. I've been fighting sickness and trying to catch up with family all at once. This update will be brief as it will largely be prayer requests.

The Campus: As a whole, the Christians on campus are praying and begging for the Spirit to move among the lives of the lost. Pray that God would manifest Himself here and answer our prayers.

The Ministry: As a ministry, we are wrestling with how we can continue to reach out to students as well as inspire the students currently in the ministry to lead out. We've had particular difficulty reaching out to the male students; for whatever reason, guys seem to be more skeptical/less responsive to our efforts to befriend them. Pray that God would break down the walls around the hearts of the students and that He would give us the wisdom to see where He is working.

The Staff: I know that personally I am beginning to get a bit worn out. The semester only has about 6 weeks left, but even now I am struggling with trying to stay healthy and rested. I can't even imagine how the staff with families are handling the stresses at hand. Please pray for them and myself so that we will be wise with our time and good stewards of our bodies/health.

The Struggle: Overall, there has been a lot going on throughout the semester, but as I look back, I am tempted to listen to the enemy when he tells me I haven't been used to advance the Kingdom in any way. I know that in my mind to be a lie but my heart looks back at the year thus far and sees little earthly results. Pray that God would give my heart new resolve and remind me why I do this - for HIS glory, for HIS name, for HIS Kingdom.

Thank you as always for your prayers. Let me know if there is anyway I can pray for you and your family. Thanks and God bless!
