Pacific Propulsion Aussie Project - Day 10 "On campuses"

All of us went on campus today... actually 2 campuses.  We all left right after lunch, and most of our students & missionaries went to UPNG (University of PNG) to share their faith with students who had arrived to uni early (the uni year has been delayed this year by 4 weeks).  They spent 4 hours there and were able to share the Gospel with 39 students, of which 8 prayed and received Christ!  

Everybody is excited to go on campus & help bring people into God's kingdom!!

I never made it to UPNG, however. Five of us instead went to Gail Puipui's (Eva's daughter) secondary school.  Gail was so excited to see us!!

Elton with Gail and her friend when we first arrived.

She's in her final year and is heavily involved in the Christian group on her campus; she's also discipling a few girls.  She, and her friends, have been encouraging the other students to also share their faith with their friends and to try to disciple others.  

She invited us to come and to tell the group about Student Life and what we do on campus.  We've given her materials in the past, and so today was a chance to "give" her some uni students (and more Knowing God Personally booklets).  We only had 18 minutes before the bell rang (which we weren't expecting), so we didn't get to say much - but what we said was very good.  There were more than 50 students (they were hoping for 30).

Elton & Jasmine led them in the Banana Dance!

Naomi (SL President this year) shared about Student Life.

Please pray for Gail.  It's hard without her Mum. She used to share everything that happened at school with her.  She's living with her uncle now and told me that "it's slowly working out".  Also, she's ready for Student Life, and wants to start it at her school, but that's a huge task.  Please pray for wisdom, patience, courage and peace as she steps out with God.
