Hamilton/St. Catherines, ON—Gospel Trip, Report 2
Yesterday, we spent the majority of the day at McMaster University distributing Bibles in the student center. At the end of the day, we distributed a total of 54 Bibles. We were able to have many conversations with the seeking ones that approached our table. We felt that our time at McMaster University was really covered by prayer because of the strong, positive response from the students. Of the ones we contacted, two of them were able to attend a love feast that we held at the home of one of the saints nearby the campus. The burden of this time was to get these new students connected with the local students and saints. The evening was filled with singing and overflow of enjoyment from the students.
Today, though no Bible distribution took place, we had the opportunity to follow up on some of the key contacts that we met from Mohawk College and McMaster University. We were able to meet up with a good number of students for second and even third appointments. Some of the ones we met today were able to come to a small group gathering in Hamilton. During the time, we had a time of sweet fellowship in mutuality with many of us testifying of how the church life is truly our home. May the Lord gain what He is after in these two campuses!
Prayer Burdens:
- Please pray that the proper shepherding and care would be rendered to these new student contacts.
- Please pray that the Lord would be able to gain key students within Mohawk College and McMaster University so that He could have a beachhead on these campuses.
- Please pray that the Lord would thrust out some to migrate to Hamilton, particularly younger couples and families, to meet the need of taking care of the new college students.
