Easter Trip Day 6: Sharing!

All of us wearing out yellow shirts ... we sorta stood out like a black cat on a snowbank.  Nevertheless, all the students at the conference went out in twos and threes for an hour to share their faith.  New students were paired up with those with experience.  The beach is just downhill from the hotel where we have our meetings and is a great place to talk with people.

In PNG the shirts are used as conversation starters and help identify us as a group.  It sure made my job of "picture-taker" (along with Candy Yost) easier.  We just headed toward the yellow, walking on a sidewalk along the shoreline... which was sometimes pavement, sometimes path.   Trying to be unobtrusive, Candy got a great photo by "shooting from the hip" (cowboy-style!)
 
Many students said afterwards that this sharing time was the highlight of the conference.  They knew how to articulate their own story of their relationship with Christ, as well as communicate the Good News to someone else.  YAY!
