Summer Project consists of around 25 students and staff from Cru movements on US campuses that dedicate 6 weeks of their summer to go on a evangelism-intensive experience and help an international Cru movement generate contacts and share the Gospel with more students that they can normally throughout the year. This year, our group was amazing and did such a great job stepping out in faith and sharing the Gospel on the Law, Economics, and Engineering campuses. They also did a great job connecting the STINT team and student leaders in Cru to their contacts BEFORE they left so that we can continuing following up with the students they met and those they led to Christ.
At their goodbye party, we encouraged the students and staff to invite any and all campus contacts who either came to know Christ recently, are believers that are interested in getting involved with Vida, or are spiritually interested non-believers. During the goodbye party, our city director, Charly, shared the Gospel and encouraged any students there to talk to a student leader, STINT, staff, or Summer Project member if they were interested in finding out more about how to know God personally.
One of the male contacts from the Engineering campus, Bruno, grabbed one of his Summer Project friends and began asking questions. A group soon formed and they decided to order empanadas and find a meeting room in the hotel where they could talk more. When I arrived a few hours later, they told me the exciting news that Bruno had just accepted Christ and that they had used the empanada boxes to share the Gospel with him. Pretty resourceful, huh?? Don't worry! If you're wondering, "How in the world did they pull that off?!" I've posted the pictures below! :)
And just think...how many times do we come up with excuses for not sharing the Gospel with those around us? If these college kids from the States can share the Gospel using empanada boxes, we really have no excuse. :)
