Chris (IVCF student leader) invited his whole leadership class to come to one of the invitational events. Mackenzie, a junior transfer, took Chris up on his offer and came to this evening's talk. We talked for a long time before hand about her beliefs and she called herself a "seeker." At the end of the event she talked about how comfortable she felt being there and how welcoming everyone was. She enjoyed being there and stayed for an hour hanging out! When asking her what she liked about the evening and what stuck out to her she replied, "I actually feel like I have a lot of things to think about right now. I really want to go home and look up the scriptures she was talking about." Mackenzie actually came back again on Thursday night and plans on coming again! Pray for Jessica and I as we meet with her and talk about what following Jesus would look like for her!

Rose and Erin talked about how they have been "dating Jesus" but they are reading to get married. Rose explained it like this, "I liked Jesus and thought he was cool, but when it came to holding hands in public I was ashamed. I am not ashamed anymore and want to accept Jesus spiritually." These two women were so motivated by what God spoke to them this last week that they are going to start a BCM (Black Campus Ministries) bible study. Pray for them as they have their first one on Thursday. Already 3 non-Christians plan to attend!
