May Prayer Letter

Dear Special Friends,

An expectant air filled the room as 13 of us gathered for the first time to dream and plan for how to share Jesus with more than 40,000 ethnic students in the Austin area. Vision, strategy, and focused prayer for revival were among the topics my new staff team discussed during our planning retreat the first week of May.

As I listened to them share ideas, I was overwhelmed by the privilege of the task before me, not only of reaching out to that many college students, but of leading and caring for my staff team. One of my roles as a team leader will be to train and equip the 7 other women in ministry skills as well as develop them in their walk with the Lord. That is why I am so thankful to spend part of my summer taking classes at Campus Crusade’s Institute of Biblical Studies in Orlando, Florida.

I will be taking four foundational seminary courses that will ground me in Scripture, teach me how to answer students’ hard questions, and how to clearly communicate as I teach the Word. It feels a bit strange to not be heading overseas for a summer missions project, however I am looking forward to being spiritually developed myself this summer.

Thank you for your continued prayers and support. I couldn’t minister full time without you! ---Angela

Praise God
