an opportunity to share BGJ with students in 4 states!

Next week marks one of the first big opportunities for us to spread the word among college students and their campus pastors about the work we are doing and various ways we can serve them. Pray for Randy as he takes several opportunities to share with students about God's heart for justice. (He sure has been studying and working hard getting ready for this!)


Here's what his week looks like:

*He leaves for Washington DC on Monday. 

*On both Tuesday and Friday, he will be working with students at Georgetown University's Chi Alpha (his old campus ministry post) who are eager to hear more about the Bible’s message of radical reconciliation and healing for the oppressed. 

*On Tuesday night he will have the privilege of sitting on a panel for a discussion at American University on the evils of human trafficking. 

*Wednesday he will meet with colleagues and collaborators on our Biblical Global Justice project at International Justice Mission, and then return to Georgetown to participate in the students’ weekly worship service on campus. 

*Thursday, Randy will be back at American University to preach a message at the local Chi Alpha group, before heading on a retreat with students from all over Virgina, Washington DC, Maryland, and parts of West Virgina.

*Friday and Saturday he will be at the retreat mentioned above, as he has been asked to teach on Biblical Justice and spread the word about this critical new resource and its potential impact on the college campus. 


As you can see, this is quite the action packed week! Please pray for Randy’s time with students to be life giving, his opportunities to share on the resources to be meaningful, and for his rest to be enough to sustain him through this busy time. (Prayer for some quality coffee during his time is always welcome, too ;)
