We NEED to be There....

Sunago @ UVic

I had to write a 200 word piece for our updated Mission Canada publication, SUPPOSE that we will put out in the spring.  As you can imagine, it is difficult to stuff " a quart into a pint bottle", but here is what I submitted this morning, before the editors get their hands on it....... It came in just under the limit.


We  NEED  to be there.

• When their minds are opened to engage the broader world. When they lay down a foundation for the rest of their lives.

• When they ask big questions. …What really matters? How can we know? Why should we care?

• When their lives are in flux.. engaging questions about their future

• When they are looking for friendships, community, purpose, value, identity, meaning, a bigger picture.

• When faith is attacked, undermined or negated.

• When they dream big dreams… and make big choices.

• When, whether they realize it, they are looking for God

• When they have the potential of making a difference for eternity in the lives of hundreds of their peers

We ARE there….

Campus Mission Canada is on dozens of Canadian campuses, led by God to develop Spirit filled communities that challenge both the mind and the spirit.

......Communities that witness to the power of Christ in every corner of our broken world.

.....Ones that see the challenge and the potential of the university and recognize its critical role in shaping our culture.

We WILL BE there…

We are reaching onto new campuses each year. Join us. There is so much yet to be done!
