Greetings from Ithaca!
It’s hard to believe we are already a month into the 2024-25 academic year at Cornell! The campus is buzzing once more, as students fill the streets, hills, and slopes of this beautiful campus; we have already been hard at work ministering to the thousands of students who are here.
It doesn’t take long before students feel the pressure of the rigorous academic programs at Cornell, and we are always looking for ways to bring them the physical and spiritual encouragement they need. In addition to Bible courses, prayer meetings, and times of refreshing worship, we also are blessed to have the incredible Mott Center as a place where students can unwind, study, and find community with one another. Each week we provide organized events as well as an open house for the students to catch a much needed breath.
It is impossible to do what we do here at CU Vita on our own. God empowers and opens doors of opportunity, and He brings forth the increase, but He uses faithful people to steward and carry out His work. Your faithful prayers and financial support make all of this possible. I cannot thank you enough for your prayers and encouragement as we minister here at Cornell. Your support changes lives at Cornell and beyond. Your engagement in our work is vital to the success of CU Vita, and we are so grateful for you!
As always, if you have any questions about the work of CU Vita, please don’t hesitate to reach out to me directly. I would be happy to speak with you.
Your support changes lives at Cornell!
Pressing On,
