Dear CU Lumine Cornerstone Partners and friends of the ministry,

Greetings from New York City. It feels like the semester just started, yet we are halfway through it with spring break coming next week.

Over the last month, we have been experiencing a real movement of the Holy Spirit in our students who have developed a desire to grow deeper in their commitment to Christ. We have seen an increase of students attending our SEEK weekly Monday evening prayer meetings held on campus. We’ve also seen an increase of students participating in our ministry's weekly Friday fast. We gather at the ministry center at 4:30pm to pray and break fast with dinner together. It has truly been exciting to see our students become more intentional about their relationship with Christ and reaching others with His love.

 
We are excited for our upcoming two-day CU Classic scheduled for Thursday, March 27th and Friday, March 28th with nationally recognized Christian apologists Cliffe and Stewart Knechtle. They will be doing a question-and-answer session on the main campus at the Sundial in the center of campus.

We are excited for the opportunity to share the gospel with the students who will stop to engage with them as they pass by. We will also be hosting our weekly Thursday night Illumina meeting on campus as an additional outreach event that evening.

Please pray that God will use Cliffe and Stewart to have a tremendous impact for the Kingdom as they minister over the two days. Also, pray for the Illumina meeting that evening and that God will provide us with perfect weather to share the gospel outdoors.

Thank you for all the support and prayers. It’s because of you we are able to minister to so many students at Columbia University.
