Shortly after writing the previous post, we received our monthly 'Connection' newsletter that updates us as staff on the goings on of the organization. A few summer project statistics were listed that we were encouraged by. We wrote in one of our monthly updates last spring about summer projects - opportunities for students to spend 6-10 weeks being trained, discipled, and actively sharing and living out their faith. These occur in multiple locations in the U.S. as well as many countries around the world.
This summer alone, 3,297 U.S. college students participated in summer projects. These students had the opportunity to share the gospel 40,817 times! From those conversations, 2,722 people indicated decisions to trust Jesus as their Savior. Those are just one-on-one conversations.
When group evangelism, such as outreach events, and media evangelism, through use of our evangelistic websites (check out everystudent.com) are included, 119,710 people had the opportunity to hear the gospel during summer projects. Of those, 8,178 trusted Christ as their Savior.
Praise God for bringing these new believers into His Kingdom!
