Describe your current work:
I am currently the undergraduate staff worker for InterVarsity Christian Fellowship at the University of New Hampshire. Our mission here is: joining Jesus to transform lives, bringing hope, purpose, and a future. This mission is highly evangelistic; everything we do works towards reaching the campus with the Gospel and seeing students and faculty come into a saving faith with Jesus. Our belief is that as we enter into this work the Holy Spirit will also transform us more into the image of Christ, that evangelism and discipleship are not mutually exclusive but are actually closely married.
In a practical sense, my work consists of training Christian student leaders in this mission, leading groups Investigating God (GIGs) for seeking students, speaking monthly at our large group meetings, organizing a Katrina Relief Spring break trip to New Orleans (40+ non-Christians are coming with us this year), and developing future staff that can plant chapters in western New Hampshire on campuses where no Christian witness currently exists.
Describe Your Current Work Needs:
I am currently operating with a $2000 projected deficit when my fiscal year ends June 30th. Your recent committed support has a great encouragement to me in this work, and I think you so much for your partnership in the Gospel.
