On the Move

Now that our summer plans have been revised a little it looks like we'll be moving again. We're going to spend the month of June in Salerno disciplining the MLK students, following up new believers, and doing evangelism on campus. I am pumped about the time I get to spend with such great staff from the states this month and the much needed fellowship of the summer project students. At the end of the month my ICS team will move about an hour north to Caserta where we will live for July. In August, we will move to two different camps being hosted by this church. Our hopes during July are to build relationships with the students involved in the church at Caserta and lay a foundation for a Campus Crusade team to be placed there. The church in Caserta is a new model partnership for us. We are hoping to work together to build up a student movement to reach the university campus in Caserta and the surrounding campuses in Naples. During July we will also be checking out what is going on in Naples spiritually. We'll be asking questions such as: Are there any existing groups of believers?, are the students there just as fertile ground for the Gospel as Salerno students, etc. It will be a time of adventure and exploration. These are the things I thrive off of so I am excited to be leading this time. Pray for Caserta that the foundation for deep relationships with the students would be constructed before we arrive. Pray for our relationship with this church that we would be servants of them. The students will all be coming down to Salerno next week to spend time with the American summer project students to catch a vision for ministry. We are hoping to show them a picture that you can be young, fun, relatively normal and still be a revolutionary Christian that shares their faith.
