University of Maryland"We proclaim to you what we have seen and heard, so that you also may have fellowship with us. And our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son, Jesus Christ. We write this to make our joy complete."
1 John 1:3-4
Beginning in Fall 2011, I will be doing collegiate ministry at my alma mater, the University of Maryland. I will walk alongside college students and help them learn how to walk with Christ for the rest of their lives. I am excited to have the privilege and opportunity of continuing to witness the incredible work God is doing on campus!
As I look back on my years as a student at the University of Maryland, I see how much I have grown and changed since I first arrived. I grew up knowing a lot about God, but it wasn’t until college that I really began to know God personally and surrender my life to Him. Through daily time in the Word, small-group Bible studies, one-on-one discipleship, and large-group fellowship meetings with The Navigators, I slowly began to allow God to work in my life as I learned what it meant to have a true and deep relationship with my beloved Lord and Savior.
Knowing what an enormous impact my community of friends and the women who have walked alongside me over the years have had on my life, I cannot think of anything else I would rather give my life to than doing the same for other young women! As I serve on EDGE Corps, I desire to proclaim God’s love and truth so that others may know the freedom and joy that comes from running into the wide-open arms of Christ (1 John 1:3-4).
I believe God has already been using my time at the University of Maryland to prepare me to continue ministering there, and I am more than eager to see what crazy things He has up His sleeve for the coming semesters. I have loved my time so far at the University of Maryland, and I am so excited to be staying for another one or two years to help students “know Him and make Him known!”
Please join me in praying that:
- The gospel may be advanced through me (1 John 1:3-4)
- Maryland would see a Christ-centered revival born out of prayer (Acts 1:14; 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18)
- The Lord would add to our number daily those who are being saved (Acts 2:46-47)
- Our hearts and minds may be perfectly fixed on our Lord and Savior (Hebrews 12:1-2; 1 Peter 1:13)
