Our VALENTINE Update

Well V-day is just a few days away!! Earlier this week we got together as a staff team to reflect over what we've seen God do over the past year at UNC ...
  • This time last year we were canceling a winter retreat due to low interest and had to take the 10 girls who were signed up to a different retreat with another region of Campus Outreach. This year we'll be celebrating Valentines day In Asheville, NC with 120 college students from UNC and NC State.
  • Last year we were praying that 10 of the students we were connected to would attend our Summer Orlando Project. This year we're praying that those 10 would return in leadership positions and that 35 first year students would attend!!
  • In February 2008 we hadn't had our first campus meeting because we didn't know enough students that we could invite. On February 5th 2009 we hosted our first campus meeting run entirely by student leadership.
  • 17 freshman at UNC are currently meeting in evangelistic bible studies.
  • 11 new christians are committed to establishing bible studies where they will learn how to walk deeply with God.
We hope your Valentines is filled with the amazing love of our Lord Jesus Christ!
