Slavery Still Exists
Next week, October 12-16, we are having an outreach called "Slavery Still Exists". This outreach will be centered around the issue of human trafficking. The goal is two-fold: to create awareness about the issue and to see students come to Christ.
We are very excited to be working together with several campus ministries in this effort! Below is information about the week, as well as ways that you can get involved and make a difference on campus.
Saturday, Oct. 10: Invisible Children (7:00pm, Lewis and Clark Room in Student Union)
Monday, Oct 12: "Slavery Still Exists" Orientation, Training, and Prayer (8 to 9:30 p.m., Waldner Room (269) in Union)
Training will include:
*Biblical mandate for evangelism
*Conversation starters
*Conversation transitions to the Gospel
*Sharing the Gospel 101
*Practice
*Vision for believing God for divine opportunities to share during the event
Tuesday thru Friday: informational tables and displays in the Union, Larson, and Medary Commons
*You can sign up with your ministry staff to help with these tables during the week. Some of them will be information about human trafficking, causes, and solutions; others will be interactive displays where students can move from thinking about the issue to thinking about sin in their own lives and hear the gospel; come Monday night for training
*You will also have opportunities to share the gospel with friends or classmates throughout the week as you invite them to the Friday event or talk with them about how Christ can bring hope into issues like human trafficking; for more info, come to the orientation on Monday night

She has frontline experience with victims of human trafficking and will bring a dynamic perspective on this issue and on how the gospel can change the world.
You are Boy-Trapped if: You have little plastic army guys guarding your fireplace. Your decorative pillows are more often part of a fort than ambiance. There is always a little boy voice on the other side of the bathroom door. Every time you settle down to read your Bible there is a boy in your lap. Every surface in your house is covered in lego fortresses...and you wouldn't have it any other way!
