Greetings!
Christian Union at Columbia has continued to experience God’s goodness this semester. We just finished a successful freshmen welcoming campaign, having reached all our goals for freshmen signups. Our desire is to integrate this freshmen class with the rest of the ministry, forming a loving community of believers on Columbia’s campus. One of the ways we intend on building community is through our upcoming fall conference at Spruce Lake. Fall conference is a great opportunity for students to build relationships with each other through various activities and spiritually refresh themselves before the semester gets crazy. Our staff has decided to teach through the book of Ruth during our time there.
Here are ways you can be praying for us:
- Our Fall Conference is this week. Pray that it would be a fruitful time of ministering to these students, and that students may grow in their walk with Christ or trust in Him for the first time. Pray that it would be a great time of community building.
- Bible Courses are beginning. Pray for God to do His work in the lives of students as we study the book of Hebrews this semester.
- Our new ministry center will be ready for use next month. Pray that many students would come to know Christ, and that students would form deeper relationships with one another through its usage.
Thank you for your continued support,
Bryant Parsons
