17 days...

This is how many days are left in the month and how many days we have left to raise the rest of our budget- $6900.  Over the past 5 years that Jesse has been on staff with InterVarsity, God has met EVERY ONE of our needs.  He has provided in AMAZING ways, often when we haven't even asked or expected it.  The verse I am always reminded of this time of the year when we are praying for the final amount to come in, is: 

Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them.  Are you not much more valuable than they? Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life?  (Matthew 6:26)

I am also reminded that He is the same yesterday, today & forever. (Hebrews 13:8)  Last year He provided every single dollar we needed, the year before that He did the same, therefore I can trust that He will continue to do so. I look forward to sharing with you how He provides the amount we have left to raise!  In the meantime, here are the praises for this year: 
  • 53 students came to faith (3 of which were led by a freshmen after he preached)!
  • 18 people joined the support team!
  • "No Secrets" outreach was a huge success and gave both Christians & Non-Christians an opportunity to receive healing and prayer for secrets in their life that had been tearing them up inside...watch a video about it here
  • 26 leaders joined Dorm team for the 2011-2012 school year
