For wisdom & discernment,
faith and courage as Brent
serves and provides leader-
ship for the campus
ministries in Orange County
Pray for protection over our marriage and
family against attacks from the enemy.
Pray we would walk closely with the Lord.
Please pray specifically for the following
campuses: Long Beach State, UC River-
side, and UC Irvine. Pray for hearts to be
open to the Gospel, God would raise up
student leaders passionate about their
relationship with God
We had a great trip to Colorado for our
CRU National Staff Conference. Over
5,000 CRU staff from across the nation
came together to hear from our leaders,
and to hear from the Lord. It was a
powerful time for many of our staff!
Leila also took four accelerated seminary
classes: Old Testament Survey,
Apologetics, Biblical Interpretation and
Communication. One class usually takes a
semester, and she did 4 classes in one
month. She worked really hard & did it!
Our son Jaron participated in his first solo
mission trip! He went with his youth
group to minister and serve the Apache
Indians. It was evident how God did some
major work through him, and in him! I
am so grateful for Crossroads Community
Church!
Micah is transitioning to middle school,
while our oldest Jaron will be an
8th
grader.
brent is changing positions!
Brent will helping to lead a team that will
be reaching out to campuses throughout
Orange County. They have three minis-
tries going at UC Irvine, Long Beach State,
and UCRiverside.
For the past few weeks, our team has
been planning and preparing for the wave
of students coming in! The beginning of
the year is full of a lot of initiating,
meeting new people, and sharing our
faith. We can spend 10 hours a day meet-
ing new people, so the introverts on our
team have to monitor themselves closely!
It is the most important time to reach out
to the incoming freshman. Over 80% of
church kids stop going to church once
they go to college, and it is critical that we
help them make that transition.
Depending on the choices before them,
their lives can go in any direction. Our
prayer is that each student would have
the opportunity to hear the gospel, and
be involved in a faith community. Thank
you for partnering with us, we appreciate
your prayers and your financial support!
