Campus workers, Campus gatherings, Campus Transformation and more! It has been an exciting month, hasn't it? I am still in Colorado, but making my way out. I won't be able to return to New York before I go to Austin, so it should be an interesting 2 weeks there with only an overnight bag full of things! Sorry for the shopped photo - here is an article with some very real idea of what's going on in the North East! Anyway, Here is what has been going on... One Cry Wow! How do I describe our citywide gathering? The Presence of the Lord was definitely manifested, and students were engaged, encouraged, and commissioned for their campuses. We had some excellent student prayer facilitators that helped lead the rest of the students in interactive prayer. They were really involved, and many of them said afterwards that they wish there was more time to pray. We had a worship band from YWAM in Harrisburg, PA come and help us out, and that was a very anointed and precious time. I talked with a few students afterwards, and they said that it was the best One Cry yet. Having heard that last semester, I wanted to know why? One student said, “It was just… the Lord… the Presence…” How descriptive. Another one said, “Last year was a lot of fire, and that was good, it was needed. This year was like a breath of the Spirit, restorative and restful at the same time. It was like God was filling us up for the work He had planned for us.” Amen! Check out my blog in the next several days and weeks for photos, student interviews, and more comments! | | |  Campus Transformation Network Consultation Monday, we had a consultation meeting of the Campus Transformation Network. The vision of the CTN is to increase Christ-centered transformation on colleges and universities by uniting leaders who influence faculty, staff and students. About 30 influencial leaders met to plan and promote this tool to help leverage those interested in college ministry. It was incredibly powerful; halfway through the morning, I was just overwhelmed with the sense that I was in the middle of a history making and changing meeting. Other people - some of the most key influential leaders in college ministry - felt the same thing. The excitement, the ownership, the shared vision of creating a network that encourges, trains, and equips - I am so honored and blessed to be on the ground floor of this network! | |  Come Hear What We Have Planned! In less than 2 weeks, we are hosting our national vision dinner on November 9 th, in Austin, Texas. This is a great time to hear more about what has been happening across the nation and in Austin with CRM, and see how you can partner with what God is doing in the colleges and university.
