Back to Movement Launching

After celebrating my birthday on Sunday (a little disappointing with the Packers loss, but really exciting with good fellowship and a new grill from Craig Johring), we're back to launching movements around this super-city once again.

Our newest team member, Matthew Wiley (right), has already jumped into the fun in only his second day on campus. He pioneered at Universidad del Claustro de Sor Juana today, along with Becky Choate (another great new staff woman) and Andrea Byl (right). Matthew put his newly acquired movement launching skills to the test as he searched for a movement leader. After talking with a few students, he was told he should wait to talk with a girl who would be out of class in 15 minutes.

When she appeared, the trio cast the vision to the unsuspecting young lady. The look on her face made Matt ask if she thought this was weird. To his surprise, she said that she had just been wondering how she could have more of an impact for Christ. A group of angels suddenly appeared singing a U2 remix called "I Just Found What I'm Looking For". (I might have made that last line up.)

They walked the student through some basics and made a follow-up appointment. God continues to create divine appointments as our staff believe Him for movement leaders on 400 universities.

(P.S. If you clicked on the link for the university, I hope you read my favorite line: "It has remained completely free of any kind of political or religious influence.")
