Alumni Conference for CO Graduates

Many graduates and staff from across the southeast met together in Carrollton, GA for an Alumni Conference today! It was a rich time of fellowship and stimulus as graduates, recent and old, came together to encourage one another in our passion to follow Christ and Build Laborers for His Kingdom! There were formal and informal times to talk about laboring for a lifetime and interacting over questions we face.

Thank you to CO Birmingham for facilitating this and for all the graduates who came and participated! I think it was a great start toward something we need to do more often! It was so good to see my brothers from years ago and reconnect over God's faithfulness and hear about all that God's been doing in their lives! Thank you for taking the time to make this happen!

Clint Watson, Russell, Scott Smith, Mike Hearon, and Mike Mason visit West Georgia's New football stadium during a break in the Alumni Conference. What a great time with dear brothers!

Please pray for us as we seek to understand how we can connect with and minister to our fellow CO alumni. We are one of our greatest resources for one another! Let me hear from you if you have any suggestions or ideas!

Multiplying Christ-Like Leaders

What a joy to get to be part of God's process of multiplying and mobilizing "Christ-Like" Leaders. This weekend we hosted assessment for graduates committing to some of our 1-2 year Vision Pathways opportunities. We are blessed and impressed with the heart, vision, and preparation of these young men and women. Please pray with us that God will continue to raise up just the right people to accompany these leaders to the field.

In 2012 each regional Campus Outreach is mobilizing graduates into many different "mobilization tracks" (1-2 year opportunities to work, minister, and grow as a part of a missional community/team). Some are into full-time ministry opportunities while others are work and ministry opportunities. Some are overseas and others are across the US.

Our office is helping mobilize graduates into 4 specific opportunities: language training in China, Intern staff with CO Brisbane in Australia, Intern staff with CO Dunedin in NZ, Teaching school with CO Khon Kaen in Thailand, and Work with U.N. refugees in Clarkston, GA.

Please pray as Jesus instructed his disciples in Matthew 9:37 to pray, "The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few, therefore pray earnestly to the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into his harvest."

Have you ever wondered?

Who is Campus Outreach and where in the world are they? How can I get involved? Well now there is an even better place to start! Please take a moment to visit the new Campus Outreach Global website. From there you have links to every staff, campus, and regional ministry. It is a great way to get involved if you are a student, supporter, or alumni! There are also great resources available as well.  Just click the image below!

What's Your View of God?

As our ministry prepares to launch a team into San Diego, California they interviewed some students they met on campus during their initial visit at San Diego State University. It is sobering to see the reality of their view of God. This is very representative of current student views not only in California but at most universities across the country as well.

"...The harvest is plentiful but the laborers are few; therefore pray earnestly to the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into His harvest." Matthew 9:37

Pray with us that God will continue to raise up laborers from the campus for the lost world! Pray for us as we help launch new ministry teams in San Diego, St. Louis, Dallas/Fort Worth, and Houston this year.
