| Our ever growing staff team |
The semester has kicked off properly down here at Georgia Southern, and things are going in full swing. Our fraternity and sorority bible studies are going well and Ashley and I have absolutely loved being back here at GSU and seeing God work among our students here. We have already seen God bring people from death to life through trusting Jesus Christ as their personal Lord and savior and know God is going to continue to bring more people to Him. As we reflect on this we are so very thankful that each and every one of you support us to make it possible for us to continue to minister to our students and to make a impact for Jesus kingdom.

God Rocks Story number 1
-We recently had a big outreach bringing in a speaker named Marian Jordan Ellis who is a traveling speaker and author who speaks almost exclusively to women as a part of her ministry Redeemed Girls Ministries. We spent weeks/months preparing for this and inviting girls from all different areas of campus to come hear Marian speak. The event was amazing and God moved in mighty ways as we had over 75 girls surrender their lives to Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior!!!!!! God rocks! |
| Our Girls Night Out Event where so many girls surrendered their lives to Jesus! |
-3 weeks ago I was able to meet up with a couple of guys in a fraternity called Pike who we have been trying to get a bible study for years and have never been able to get anything going. I was able to make a contact through a friend who is a Pike and I was able to sit down with him and one other guy from his fraternity and we talked about how we could get a bible study going. Their president was hesitant to let them announce it at chapter, however eventually they were able to do so. We have now had 2 bible studies and we had at least six guys at each one. Pike has 95 guys in their fraternity with no Christian presence and it is so exciting to know that God is present and working in their chapter and we are praying that more guys keep coming to Bible study and hopefully give their lives to Jesus.
Praises/Updates
-We have already had a few people in
our ministry before girls night out become Christians which is ultimately why we are here,
so exciting to see God work!
-We have been able to start up a few
new Bible studies and students are taking ownership and leading
themselves which has been great to see.
-We have over 30 freshmen Greeks involved in our freshmen discipleship groups and we are praying that they would become future leaders in their chapters

Prayer Requests
-In 2 weeks we are heading to Miami on a mission trip with 18 of our students. We are going to be working on the campuses of either University of Miami or Florida international university for a couple days and then we will spend a couple of days working with people at a homeless shelter in the morning and then working with kids at an after school program in the afternoons. Pray for safe travels down to Miami and then pray that we will be able to make a lasting impact for Christ and his kingdom in the most unreached city in the United States.

-Pray for the fraternities I am working
with, that the guys will grow in their relationships with the Lord
and that guys would surrender their lives to Jesus. I am currently
working with SigEp, PiKap, Pike, Delta Sig, Delta Chi, ATO, SAE, and
Kappa Sig. Also pray for the wrestling team Bible study.
-Pray the same thing for Ashleys girls,
she is working with KD, AOPi, ADPi, Zeta, and PhiMu.
-I will be speaking in front of a few chapters and a few pledge classes in the fraternities soon on the myth that God isn't worth following in college that is all so prevalent in our culture today. Pray for God to open up new doors for us, for boldness, and that these guys would be interested in following up with me after I speak
As always, we are eternally grateful that we are able to do what we do because of your faithfulness to God through financially supporting us and through your prayers. There are already over 100 people this semester alone who you will meet in heaven that you have played an integral role in their being with us in Heaven, thank you so much for all you do!

PS-Update from Africa
Ashley and I have been so encouraged to hear from our students in South Africa that ministry there is going awesome! It is entirely student led now, students are leading all the bible studies that Ashley and I were leading last year and they are leading the weekly meetings that we were meeting as well. God has done awesome things in their lives and is continuing to do awesome things through their lives.
