One of our students, Joel, isn't a Mizzou student. He goes to another local college, Columbia College, which is less than a mile away from where I live and is about the same distance north of the MU campus. He saw a need for the gospel at his school of just of 3000 students and pursued launching a bible study that just got started this past Sunday. Recently, he applied for a spot for The Rock at their "Hey Day" event, which is essentially a student activities fair. Joel asked me and another student for some help working the event.
I spent my midday with him and Jacob passing out Icee Pops, handing out information on our church and having great conversations with students at Columbia College. We passed out about fifty flyers for his bible study and we have about as many people to contact about Community Group and church on Sunday.
It was a fun opportunity to help meet a need in a nearby campus. We're thanking the Lord for prompting Joel to reach out to his fellow classmates and I'd ask you to pray with me that the Lord stirs in the hearts of students at Columbia College.
