Twice a year we do a big push to get students to invite their friends to our Wednesday Night Program. Last night was our Collide event and it was a huge success. We had over 300 students attend and we had 11 decisions for Christ. God moved in such a powerful way. Today I was just going through the program looking at ways to improve and looking at why it was so successful. I think the first key to the success was obviously God's hand in it but secondly was our students. About a month ago I brought our Student Leaders together and asked them to come on board to support this and push this with me. It's one thing when I invite people but the power of peers inviting peers is incredible. They got excited about it and it took off from there. The success was theirs.
In Student Ministry the most powerful tool that you have is your students. It's not a Student Pastor's speaking ability, a cool band, pizza, or giveaways, it's allowing God to move through your students and them catching the vision and realizing the need to see their friends come to know Christ. Thank you to all my amazing Students, I'm so blessed to be your Student Pastor and so proud of your love for the Lord and others.
