First Small Group Bible Study

YEAH!!! I wish you could hear my voice right now, because you would hear one encouraged and excited staff worker. Tonight was our first small group Bible Study in the freshman dorm. There were 9 students there......9!!! That is double the amount of students in the chapter at the beginning of the year (which was 2 weeks ago). It was an amazing time, the word of God truly became alive, and discussion was amazing.

There was a grad student, who will be a teacher's assistant for Spanish at Albion. He is from Mexico and he just became a christian last year. He was very worried about coming to the states because he didn't know how he would grow in his relationship with Christ. He was so excited to be a part of our group tonight, he said he was going to write a letter to his church telling them that their prayers are answered for him and that he has found a christian community. And this is why I am encouraged to do what I do. A man was lost and now is found, and is experiencing true community in the body of Christ!
