“He is the Rock, His works are perfect,
and all His ways are just.
A faithful God who does no wrong,
upright and just is He.” (Deuteronomy 32:4)

Greetings,

We continue to give God praise for his work on Columbia’s campus through Christian Union. By His grace, we continue to minister faithfully in every way that He has called us. This semester,our major outreach initiative has been the book giveaway and discussions around Ravi Zacharias and Vince Vitale’s Jesus Among Secular Gods. The outreach culminates in Vince Vitale coming to speak at our Illumina. These book discussions have been aimed primarily at skeptics of the Christian faith. We held our first discussion a few weeks ago on the topic of Scientism. Non-Christians were in attendance, including a Buddhist student. Pray that these discussions would lead ultimately to conversions, and that Christians who attend may be strengthened in their faith.

Here are ways you can continue to pray for us:

• Pray that students read the hundreds of books that we will give away, and that they attend the book discussions.
• Pray for our students to be bold enough to invite their friends to the book discussions.
• Pray for God to use Vince Vitale mightily as he comes to speak and interact with students next month.
• Pray for staff as we lead these discussions

May the grace of our Lord continually be with you,
