Full Circle Again
Prayer is Powerful! That seemed to be a theme ringing throughout our debriefing with the students from the University of Connecticut that joined us for a Weekend Service Retreat.
It was awesome to listen to the students share how God used Friday Night Prayer at Global Ministries Christian Church, hands-on renovation work at a local church, and the other activities of the weekend to speak to them.
As you may remember, I was greatly impacted by a similar experience in Dorchester in 2001 with my college fellowship. Mat, my InterVarsity staff leader on that trip, was the person who later recommended to me to join the team at The Boston Project Ministries. This weekend, I had the opportunity to once again serve alongside Mat in Dorchester, as I poured into the students from the InterVarsity Fellowship he is now leading at the University of Connecticut.
So as we sat around and reflected, I wondered how God may use this weekend retreat experi¬ence in the lives of the students like He used it in mine almost 7 years ago. It is awesome how God let’s us be a part of His work in one another’s lives.
