Off and Running

The fall semester is off to a great start! We had students return to us and have seen many new students join us on a regular basis at our social events, as well as our Sunday service and weekly Bible studies.

This semester we are holding four Bible studies each week. Two are co-ed, one is for guys, and the other is for the ladies. In the single sex Bible studies we are studying about God?s plan for our romantic relationships and have seen God greatly challenging how we think about the decisions we make regarding these relationships. Pray that our students continue to seek God?s will for their dating relationships and future marriages.

We held our annual Mooncake Festival party at Grove Park on September 29 and had the chance to reach out to over 100 students. It was a great time of fellowship, games, and food! A special thanks to Metro East Baptist Church who let us borrow their extra large grill for the event!

We are looking forward to how God will move among us as we plan to attend the Life Impact conference in Denver, CO the first week of January. If you are interested in sponsoring a student to go on this retreat, please contact me. We are always blessed by the support of our local churches in prayer and financial means, and are so thankful for your assistance!

Finally, we were thrilled to baptize another student this past month and had a special baptism service and celebration dinner afterward. Continue to pray that God will add more believers to our group. We love to see to see Him at work!
