September 2006
      Our first month of activity is under our belts. With 8 full-time students we have been making quite an impact wherever we go. In our first two weeks we visited three local Wisconsin schools; UW Madison, UW Milwaukee, and Marquette University. The last two weeks brought us through South Dakota, Montana and Wyoming, partnering up with the Missionaries to the Preborn, exposing the sin of abortion and preaching repentance and faith in Christ.  [read MTP update]  We also declared the Law of God regarding homosexuality and gave a reasoned defense of the Christian position, something most college students have never heard. The Lord greatly blessed our ministry, please keep us in your prayers!

Jason preaches to a large crowd that gathered at South Dakota State University in Brookings.

     Many Christians came out in support of our efforts there. A liberal professor also joined the discussion but quickly retreated when it became evident he was on the losing side of the debate. Many young people came under heavy conviction when their champion (and their beliefs) were shown to be foolish. "The fear of the Lord is the beginning of Wisdom".

      As Jason dialogued with the crowd many young people from our school had small group ministry going on the side. It was an excellent day of ministry in  state that has two very important referendums coming up on their November ballot. One, to outlaw abortion in the state and the other to define marriage as exclusively between a man and a woman (no civil unions or anything similar to that either!) We pray that our simple efforts would reap a tremendous harvest in the months and years to come.

Jason (on left) and Ben (on right in green shirt) trade off preaching to a small crowd at the University of Wyoming in Laramie. Many of our young preachers at the school stepped up and preached the Word boldly at this campus. Despite many very hard hearts a great deal of powerful ministry took place in the two days we spent at this school.
