Are we spending time in the Word? Are we surrounding ourselves with Christian influences? Do we have so much on our plate that we have no room for God? Owensboro area CROSS (BCM) is hosting a Dessert Theatre that focuses on how we can’t become so consumed in the world that we stop looking to Christ as the center of our lives.

If you are in the Owensboro area or feel like traveling, join us for this FREE event! Entertainment will be provided by the Owensboro Area Impact Creative Ministries Team in the form of interpretive movement, puppets, acoustic worship, a short film, and so much more! Youth groups and church families are invited to join us on Monday, January 26th at 7:00 at the Daviess-McLean Baptist Association Building on Scherm Road. FREE dessert and drinks will be provided. Owensboro area college students are invited to attend during our regular CROSS meeting at 5:00 on Tuesday, January 27th for dinner and dessert.

Please be in prayer for this event that the hearts of those in attendance will be receptive as God speaks to them through the program.  Pray that area youth may attend and that our college students understand the importance of centering their lives around Christ and not being overwhelmed by their activities.  If you would like more information about the Dessert Theatre or CROSS, visit our website at the following link http://panther.kwc.edu/ics/Campus_Life/Campus_Ministries/CROSS.jnz .  Check out our newsletter while you’re there (current issue: 01 January)!

The beginning of this school year has been wonderful on all of our campuses in the Owensboro Area. Students are excited, leadership team is on the ball with all their responsibilities, administrators on the campuses are welcoming and cooperative and God is opening doors for ministry with students daily. Let’s give God praise and thanks for what He is doing in our ministry.Owensboro students have a new atmosphere and format for worship which they are really responding to with enthusiasm. Our freshman ministry, F.R.O.G. had a great beginning under the leadership of intern, Maeghan Garrett and Crystal Fishburn, leadership team member. Madisonville Community College students come to Bible Study with great spirits and numbers. Henderson Community College students and staff are excited about moving to a new location and having wonderful leadership from interns Scott and Jackie Newman who live in Henderson and offer much to students and churches. Owensboro Community and Technical and WKU Owensboro campuses will have a new on-site Bible Study on Thursday afternoons led by intern, Mark Adkins.

Our Owensboro C.R.O.S.S. leadership team members Joel Adcock, Crystal Fishburn, Brandon Newman, and Nicole Greer have been hard at work with ministries such as Traveling Praise Team, FROG, church relations, and hospitality. Lauren Seber, Sarah Gibson and Tim Hicks have planned worship services for this semester and are leading the services with warm, encouraging spirits. I’m telling you all this so you will know that God has placed the right people in the right places of leadership as they use their spiritual gifts and wonderful talents to minister to students this year. Please pray for them as they serve.

September 19-21, 18 students and interns will travel with me to Refocus at Jonathan Creek Camp for a time of community building with other BCM students from other Kentucky campus. Pray that as we worship fellowship, play and learn we will listen as God speaks.

In just a few weeks we will go on Fall Break mission trip to Nashville, TN to work through Harvest Hands urban ministry. Students will be painting, repairing buildings, teaching children and helping with a street carnival near downtown Nashville. Students be sure to sign up at C.R.O.S.S. during M&M night next Tuesday, September 16

 

 

 

th. You will have a great experience! Be praying for our ministries as they continue to grow students!
