The transition from college to workforce and finding your way in the world is huge. A few of the students involved in Campus Crusade join our staff. However, there are thousands more who enter the marketplace who have been trained in how to share their faith, disciple others, and lead Bible studies—yet find themselves overwhelmed and feeling isolated without a community of support. We want to resource these students, helping them be a light for Christ and providing help wherever they are in life.
Our team has designed a website, cru2.org, which provides resources for grads to help them stay connected, and keep doing ministry where they are. The site will allow them to post a brief profile, see where other CCC grads are, and use a church locator. It will also host articles which pertain to their life out in the “real world.” You can visit the site now, but it’s still in the development stage. There’s also a curriculum that staff can use to help seniors prepare for how to continue in evangelism and discipleship after their move from college life.
We enjoyed celebrating Christmas and New Year’s Eve with our families in Michigan and New York and are in the Buffalo area right now working on support. It was fun to use an advent calendar and see Mikayla’s excitement grow for Baby Jesus’ birthday. Mikayla is learning to use the potty right now and doing pretty well. She continues to make us laugh at the new things she says. Last night after seeing Heather eating a piece of chocolate she exclaimed, “I need chocolate, too!” Elijah is still growing fast—we predict by a year old he’ll outweigh Mikayla (if not sooner). He loves watching his sister and is easily entertained—most of the time. We are challenged at times by our circumstances (being away from home, raising support) but want to trust that God is not unaware and has a plan and purpose for us.
Thank you for partnering with us to equip this generation to reach out with the hope
of Christ.
