Screaming Youth Meetings


"college students will always surprise you"

This was a favorite reminder of Corey Rose, College pastor in Eugene for over 20 years now, and a mentor of mine. And now having been involved in college campuses and youth ministry in 3 countries, I have to agree. College ministry is dynamic, thrilling, exhausting, fun, suspenseful, and normally quite an earful too.

For the last month my job has involved traveling back and forth from La Paz in preparation for the first ever Bolivian Baptist Youth Crusade. It's a pretty big deal, 12 months of preparation, 12 months of follow up, and this coming week 9 days of consecutive evangelistic youth meetings in 15 places simultaneously. So if you think of it, pray for all of those involved in coordinating, teaching, welcoming. And pray that many youth would be reached, many youth would be challenged, and the church would grow.

Also, be thinking of Daryl and the kids as it's always hard for them when I travel, and I'll be gone for 7 of the next 9 days.

Ok, off to get my suitcase ready. Dan
