College Evangelism Needs

This past August, we were privileged to be able to be a part of a meeting of campus evangelism workers at Tucson, Arizona. One of the undeniable facts about the history of the Church in China is that because very little evangelism was directed at students in China before, during, and after World War II, the communist found college students to be the main tools of the takeover of the government. Great leaders frequently come from the college ranks, and the need to get college students to realize that God is real and that they need a relationship with God to make their lives full and complete cannot be over emphasized. In the past 25 years, the Church has tended to move away from the college campus and those programs that have stayed on campus have become less evangelistic and more transparent than in the past. We would encourage congregations located near college campuses to look at what they can do to bring the principles of Jesus Christ to the campus. There are people who can help, and if you need leads for more information please contact us.
