AnCon and week1

27 07 2007
Ancon was fantastic!

One the highlights was Rowan's talks on resurrection, which made a big impact on some people, but the main highlight was that many people committed their lives to Christ!

Also on one occassion Rowan asked those who were willing to seriously consider going into full time ministry to stand, and about 200 people stood up!

I think my review group and seminar went well too. Plus there was lots of fun to be had. The picture is of people doing theatre sports stuff (I got roped into doing that too).

Praise God for AnCon and for saving some students. Also pray that we'll be able to follow up all the people that stood up, so that many of them will be part of the flood of Christian leaders we are sending into God's church.

Week 1 has also been great, and busier than we expected. On Monday I went with a group of students to do some walk-up evangelism. We got to explain the gospel to some people (one student from America seemed to be primed to ask all the right questions like "so, what difference does that make to how you live?") and we met an international student who is already a Christian, but had not yet heard about the EU.

Please pray for those people and that we might have further contact with them.

ACES and ISM meetings have already started this week for MG, and the small group Bible studies for the other faculties will begin next week, so we've also been busy calling people and gathering timetables. We haven't had as much time as we had hoped for preparing one of the student training courses, which also starts next week. Pray thatGod would be looking after all these things for us.
