Student Choice #3- Luke Taylor

The past couple months my good friend, Josh Campbell, has been conceding for unity to arise on his campus with the ministries. He, and some other ministry leaders, have been praying weekly together and asking God to move on their campus. I had the privilege of getting to meet up with them today and share my heart with them in hopes to share some wisdom based on previous experience on what I've seen works well and what doesn't.
This is where things got crazy. When we arrived we were waiting on some other leaders to arrive and ran into two random students who happened to be looking for a catholic seminar they were headed to for a class. It turned out that the speaker to their event had cancelled so I invited them on over to join us letting them know that it would be a similar gathering... 
As Josh got the meeting started one of the students who joined us kind of lashed out on him asking why he talked a certain way when talking about Jesus. Suddenly every leader there had a word to say to the two students about how God had encountered them with so much love in their life and how Jesus forever changed them. The presence of the Holy Spirit was so present and we could feel it in our hearts that these new friends were about to meet the Lord!
Sure enough, we asked them if they wanted to receive Jesus as their Lord and Savior and to start a relationship with Him and THEY SAID YES!!!! We invited them to stick around for the meeting and they decided they would! haha, God brought some more diversity in the ministry leader gathering and we had some new saved Catholics with us!
I was SO encouraged by these leaders at Mary Washington. They are stirred with SO much faith and believe whole heatedly that God has such an amazing plan for their campus. Thank you Jesus for continuing to raise up leaders after unity in Christ and a heart that wants your glory to be made
