Spring is in the air! I am so excited for the energy flowing here at Albion. Ministry is going well, and each day the Lord is giving me excitement to wake up and work with students. I have been LOVING my job, my calling as a campus minister. Truly the Lord has plans to transform the lives of students and faculty, the renew the campus and develop world changers.....and the best part.....YOU GET TO BE A PART OF IT! PRAISE GOD WITH ME! *Lyndsey, Julia, Cynthia, and Kris, all a part of Kappa Delta, a sorority on campus. I have talked with each of them, and they want to start a Bible Study in their house in the fall. *Kristi---our chapter president. She is growing faithfully in the Lord, and committed to seeing the InterVarsity chapter grow both spiritually and numerically, in the midst of her heavy class load as a pre-med student. *Kwame- a gifted teacher of the word of God. He is leading a Bible study in the dorms on Thursday evenings. The Lord has given him the gift of teaching, and we get to be the recipients of his gift! WOULD YOU PRAY WITH ME? *I am in the process of recruiting students for our annual spring chapter camp. It is a week long training in leadership, and the students who go, come back with a vision, and desire to reach the campus with the good news of Jesus. Would you pray that students would be able to go, both that their schedules would be open, and that the finances would be provided? *Spring time means, time to evaluate the year, plan for next year, and to call students into leadership. Would you join with me in prayer as I meet with students, discussing these three topics? Pray that we would have the mindset of Christ. Thank you for your partnership, Kristin Sausser InterVarsity Christian Fellowship Campus Staff Member Albion College

Dear Praying Friends, Family and Ministry Partners, This week is the week before spring break! I can't believe how fast the semester is flying by. Each day, I am reminded more and more that I love my job, and that there is much work to be done on campus! Please pray with me and for me. *Small Group Bible Studies, pray that we would continue to have new students come, that the word of God would be transformational and the the community between students would grow *Pray for students as they make decisions on where to live next year. Pray that they would seek the Lord, and live intentionally in a place where they can be used by God. *Prayer prayer, everywhere! Prayer is spreading among the chapter. Many students are seeking the Lord on campus, both personally, and corporately. Praise God for this, and pray that we would continue to not move forward, unless the Lord moves us. *Pray that this week would end well, as I meet with students and "send them off" on their spring breaks. * I am starting to recruit from our spring conference, called Chapter Focus Week. It is an incredible week of leadership training, but many students are hesitant because of the costs. Please pray that the costs would be provided for, and that students would go. *PRAISE! Jon and I have moved into our new house. Albion is officially our home, and we pray that our house would be a house of ministry and encouragement. NOTE...new address 410 Burr Oak, Albion, MI 49224 *Continue to pray for my financial situation. We are all facing the crisis in the economy, and many of our staff members are having to get second jobs to help with the financial burden. I am still $20,000 away from reaching my full time budget, and therefore am not giving all of my time on campus. I have a second job to help supplement. Praise God that He continues to provide. Pray that fear would not run rampant in these times, and pray that God would continue to bless this ministry. If you would like to give, even a one time gift, please contact me. With much love and gratitude, Kristin Sausser
