Paul M., shared his testimony as he prepares to go to Bolivia for 3 months as a short-term missionary. He said that he wanted to learn Jesus all the more and be like Jesus.

Sarah Little and her friend Christine A. shared their mission report after coming back from Turkey.

Afterwards, 17 students shared 2011 key verse testimonies. Many of them were young students who have been studying the Bible for the last one or two years. Their key verse testimonies were very sincere and full of joy, accepting Jesus as their Savior. Truly, God is a living God who working in them through his word. There are so many thirsty souls on our campuses. May God bless our world campus mission and may his name be glorified all the more. Pastor Ron Ward encouraged us to live as salts and lights in 2011.
