James Gisler speaking about how not to waste time at College during Evangelism Training.

Wednesday this week is a little different. After evangelism, instead of debriefing, disciples will be cleaning in anticipation of the returning staff. There will also be a communal time of prayer held this evening. Continuing last week, James Gisler will share with us during Evangelism Training. He will be speaking on “The Gospel and the Campus.”
Otherwise today is pretty standard, the team leaders are just getting back from their Leadership Training Session. Until training today, disciples have been getting in the word and meditating on what they have learned from last night. There is still so much to be done and be thankful for even on the last week of project.

James Gisler talking about Mercy Ministry, and how an exile can apply it.

Today the CCP group is organizing an adventure for today’s social. Students are going to be sent to Broadway Beach on a scavenger hunt. However, the catch is that CCP members are going to be hiding in different places around Broadway. Therefore, teams are going to be rewarded if they find any of the CCP members.
In regards of the talk from yesterday at Evangelism Training by James Gisler, please watch this powerful video of Matt Chandler:

James Gisler teaching about the importance of repentance in Evangelism Training.

Today, Wednesday, the CCP group joined the Team Leaders and the Room Leaders for today’s Seminar led by Adam Evers. Adam shared about Confrontation among the disciples.
“It made me realized how much I idolize relationships” said Michael Owczarek, one of the room leaders, “It was a helpful talk.”

As for the afternoon, James Gisler shared “The Message, Part II” with us. James talked about the importance of having Jesus in our sharing time.
“If we do not talk about Jesus, the message is pointless.”

After evangelism time, the students had their campus time where the challenge was to think and pray for those who are back in Minnesota who do not know about Christ.

Yesterday, Colby Williamson spoke for a second time at Evangelism training. He emphasized that God is loving, but also just. Students are beginning to be more confident sharing their faith.This is not because of the weekly experience, but rather, they have been able to see that God is the one who is working through them.

Moreover, late afternoon the project was divided into girls and boys. It was a special bonding time for both of the groups. The guys played ultimate  while the girls had chocolate fondue.

As for today, the staff is leaving to different directions for the next four weeks. Pray for the staff as they go around the south raising support for their ministries.

Tonight is also Social Night, or as we are calling it, GUACAMOLE Night! The Josh Schrock’s team, Boom Boom Pow, is in charge of the spicy night out.

A few pictures from the staff send-off last night. (a clip of this glorious night is also coming soon)
