Last week was rich in events. We went to the International Christian University and invited students to come to the UEC and our different activities. Many students responded and six already signed up to use the library. Here are some of the authors whose books they checked out – C.S. Lewis, Lee Strobel, Philip Yancey, Peter Kreeft and Francis Schaeffer. Each one of them received a new hardcover TNIV Bible to use for their classes. Another five students came to the movie night hosted by the UEC on Fridays.
English Bible class is going well too. We have a steady number of students – eight so far. Last week we talked about the Creation and the Fall. The students had many questions of course – the first chapters of Genesis are among the most debated passages in the Bible. Through this ministry we gave out about 10 new Bibles so far. I already gave them their first written assignment, encouraging them to apply the Bible in their every day life.
Last night we held the first in a string of seminars on relationships and other issues that interest students and young people. Seven people attended and we had a great discussion about being single and happy. Everyone left encouraged to trust God more in their personal life.
In the meanwhile, we are preparing for our visitors from Tennessee in less than a week. Here are some pictures we took last week.
