Brittany Fallon, an engineering student from ASU, went on her second mission trip this past summer. She went with Campus Crusade for Christ. They went specifically to witness to college students. She had a great time and was able to see students believe in Jesus for salvation. This trip was an expensive one monetarily but oh so very worth it. here is an excerpt from her e-mails home:
Two girls prayed to have a real relationship with Christ yesterday. On our third day on campus!! God is really here, and he really is moving. Some of the staff members were shocked that we already people were coming to Christ. As we were praying yesterday during team time, I got the number 20 in my head. I want to see 20 Monash Uni students come to Christ and ask to have a relationship with him. Early in the morning, me and Nicole talked to a guy and girl in the engineering courtyard. Shannon (the boy, I don't know how to spell it but that's how you pronounce it) and Steph. They were super open to hearing about what we had to say, and they gave quite a bit of feedback. We sat talking to them for nearly an hour after we had initially asked for only 15 min of their time. Steph's family is Buddhist, but she only believes parts of it. She does however believe there is a higher power. Shannon, however, has no religious background at all. He had heard some stuff about different levels of heaven after you die, where the better people go to a better heaven. But as we talked about our beliefs, he was listening intently and reading along in the Knowing God Personally booklet. They both seem curious about having a relationship with God and Christ. Steph kept saying should couldn't really give her opinion because she didn't know much about Christianity or what it meant. Please pray that they both will continue to want to learn about what it means to have a relationship with Christ and that God will reveal himself to them to show that He is real.
Today, we are going to have a pizza party for Student Life at noon. Many students like free food here just like the students in the States! Please pray for the people we encounter that God will soften their hearts and use us as a light. Also, pray we have enough food. We invited TONS of people!
Brittney left for Australia trusting that God would provide the funds. If you feel led to add to her fund, email her at brittney.fallon@gmail.com and she will send you the details.
