Crazy November!
Wow... time sure flies when you're working hard, doesn't it?
I can't believe Thanksgiving is this week. It seems like just yesterday I was writing to tell you all that I was about to move back here! Anyhow, things are wonderful here. It has been a jam-packed month, with our first two major outreaches. They both went so well -- thank you for praying!
From both of these events, we have about 40 students that we can follow up; these students either indicated that they made a personal decision to invite Christ into their lives or they are interested in hearing more about God or Student Venture. Now, when I walk onto the high school campus after school, I see about a dozen students I know by name -- this is so exciting!
We will focus on following up these students for the next couple of weeks until Christmas. We are also recruiting students for our winter conference called Fastbreak. You'll hear more about this conference as it gets closer, but trust me, it is an incredible weekend. We have only had a few students in past years, but something tells me we'll have plenty more this year... :)
Here are some pictures from our past events. Enjoy!
This is a picture of me and Emma, one of our SV kids. I love spending time with this girl. :) The other is Roxanne and two girls who were brand new to SV. They had a blast!
These are hard to see, but this is Andre Kole in action. The first picture is Andre and Ryne Robinson, the star wide receiver of the Miami football team -- he got his head chopped off in one of Andre's illusions! The second picture is Andre actually levitating. I know it's blurry, but still, it's incredible.
Thanks for your encouragement and support -- I love sharing all this with you! Have a wonderful Thanksgiving :)
His,
Emily
