Big Ten School Gets Campus Ministry in 2002
Mark Morris - State College, PA. - Monday, December 31, 2001

"'Shout and be glad, O Daughter of Zion.  For I am coming, and I will live among you,' declares the Lord. "Many nations will be joined with the Lord in that day and will become my people.  I will live among you and you will know that the Lord Almighty has sent me to you.'"
- Zechariah 2:10,11

God continues to do amazing things among His disciples, as we boldly preach the word, and proclaim His wonders!  Almost two years ago, disciples around the world rejoiced together as we completed the Evangelization Proclamation.  But we knew then that we had only begun our world missions effort to restore God's one true biblical church.  As we continue to pray to see disciples in every nation and every city, God moves powerfully, and advances His Kingdom into farther regions of this world!

In January 2002, God will have answered many prayers as He leads us to State College, PA, to one of the nations leading academic campuses -- Penn State University!  Penn State boasts numerous academic, scientific and athletic achievements.  Although probably best known for their Nittany Lion pride, and Joe Paterno (Joe Pa), PSU is a meeting ground of many future leaders from around the world! 

God has chosen the Harrisburg Church (PA), to begin leading the work on the campus.  It is exciting for this young three year old church to begin its own missionary work!  To lead the ministry work, God is calling Seth Asman and Kristen Wilson to the task. 

"I think the things that excites me the most," says Seth, "is the chance to teach such a great number of students about the Bible.  There are over 40,000 students on campus, and we've received a great response from the students we've already met.  We hope and pray that God will lead us to open hearts, and that we will have an impact on many.  I know that God wants to do amazing things among us, and there are great things awaiting us at Penn State!"

Currently, the campus has four disciples as it begins its work for the New Year.  "It's amazing to see how God used two disciples to make two more disciples in one semester!"  Says Seth, "As well, these students would travel 2 hours by bus each Sunday to get to church in Harrisburg - truly God blesses the sacrificial heart!  We are looking forward to the New Year, and establishing the ministry.  And we look forward to the fall and seeing more Kingdom Teens join us on campus!"

As we head into 2002, let's continue to ask God to do amazing things among us!  As disciples, we must never give up dreaming for the kingdom!  Keep working hard and loving one another, and to God be the Glory!
