Norfolk, VA—Gospel Trip, Days 8-11
After being in Newport News this weekend, six trainees went back to Norfolk to follow up with students at Old Dominion University (ODU) in personal appointments. These have been very encouraging! One new student who has been very responsive to the ministry came to a home meeting Tuesday night. She is interested in visiting the Lord’s Day meeting andthe college conference! We have also been spending time with some students who have been coming to home meetings but are not fully in the church life.
Six trainees are currently in Blacksburg, VA. Our time in Blacksburg has been filled with so much sweet enjoyment of the Lord through blending with the saints and speaking Him forth on the Virginia Tech campus. After arriving in Blacksburg on Monday afternoon, meeting the local saints, and having dinner together at Virginia Tech, we enjoyed a precious time of singing, prayer, and testimonies.
Today (Tuesday), we set up a BfA table on campus. Even though it was very cold outside, we were warmed and cheered as we flowed out to those around us. We handed out 98 New Testament Recovery Version Bibles as well as several ministry books. One young man confessed the name of Lord!
Prayer burdens:
- For the students we’ve been meeting with at ODU to get connected to the local saints
- For the Lord, in His timing, to bring some from ODU to the college conference
- Please stand with the burden of the saints in Blacksburg for the Lord to gain some typical Americans for His expression at Virginia Tech!
