Lusi has just dropped the most awesome presentation on Campus Harvest 2012- moving from an event focus to a on-going lifestyle approach.
The theme is Love Revolution!
In 2010 we had 1500 students at a weekend camp at Magaliesburg, in 2011 we reached 2700 through a tour event and for 2012 we focus on daily impact on each campus.
Fearless Friday is one initiative that stood out this year which is a monthly event where we go with students into the community trusting God for physical healings & salvation.
It was incredible seeing students stepping out boldly and expecting to see God move with power. We were blown away by the miracles and salvations we saw!
Looking forward to next year- we're sensing supernatural fruitfulness!
JJ Uys is sharing how for the past two years they've been working hard to build a student-led campus ministry where students are empowered to be the solution for their campus.
They've taken the slower route of discipleship and have seen this year students rise up to lead. They now have 2 people serving full-time in campus ministry, 30 conect groups and 450 students attending services.
They also have off-campus initiatives like: missions, camps, drug awareness campaigns and a kids program reaching out to kids (for kids).
Kaspa, who's just given a year of his life to serve in campus ministries in Botswana, is sharing how things are going there.
This year they've managed to be registered as a campus society which gives them venues for their events. They're in a place where people easily give their lives to God but do not become committed.
They're focusing on discipleship with the few students they have and looking forward to seeing these students reach other students next year.
Hilma's sharing how they've finally managed to break the 100 student mark and have 112 students connected in conect groups and over 150 attending services.
They've been so consistent and committed on the campuses that when the university chancellor needed help with one of the SRC portfolios, he called Hilma's team to help.
For next year, they're trusting God to reach two more campuses by raising students will go and make a difference on their own campus.
Our annual campus leaders summit is coming up in 2 weeks time. +130 full-time campus ministers are going to descend upon Jeffrey’s Bay to plan and pray for the next year.
For me this is an exciting date on the calendar because I get to meet young and old men and women who’ve dedicated their lives to reach college and university with the gospel and to equip them to be ready to make a difference when they leave the campus.
 | It’s so encouraging to hear testimonies of things God has done across our region – every time I hear testimonies it reminds me of God’s active power and that we really are going to see Africa truly saved. It also helps to remind us to pray for each other for the challenges people face in their mission field. |
God is calling all of us to be the Joshua generation to believe God at His word and step into all spheres of life with boldness.
We’ve just had another Ministry Partnership training with 19 missionaries ranging from church planting, missions, campus ministry and community development.
People from all kinds of walks of life with different experiences coming to a crossroad and laying it all down to see to it that the truth of God reaches the whole world…literally. It’s just too exciting to be part of what God’s doing.
We have 20 people who are stepping into ministry to plant churches and work in community development accross the globe.
We were equipping then with the biblical principles of ministry partnership and giving them the tools and strategies to make it happen.
It's great to live in times where people were forsaking all including careers and home comforts to see God's truth reach the whole world.
