At the beginning of September I had the chance to spend two weeks in Mississauga. It was pretty awesome. XP.
The main point of this was that I got to have a taste of what it's like to be a staff member with P2C. I don't know what's ahead of me after I graduate in 2015, but spending time on staff with P2C is an option, and something I would be interested in doing, so I wanted to test it out. xP I got a taste of it: leading students in evangelism, sharing stories and vision, organizing students, being the go to connector person, kinda overseeing things so that everyone can be working to the maximum during frosh week. XP
There was so much focus on prayer and it really brought our group together. Each day meeting for prayer and sometimes worship songs, bible study and getting to know each other better before going out surveying.
The coolest thing about the whole experience was just how God was really at work at UTM. From the first day to my last day the group grew from a handful to like 15 students and (when I go on facebook and stalk them) most of them are still really involved.
The second week I started to phase out, allowing the UTM students to be the main connection to those on campus we were meeting. After I had left they continued and at the Does God Exist event there were about 65 in attendance, with a bunch of guys staying after to talk with the speaker for a couple hours.
So now they are having Action Group meetings, daily prayer meetings, and outreach events.
I really miss the campus and the students and can't wait to hear all of the crazy stories of what is happening at UTM. xP
Keep praying for this young movement as they seek to really make an impact for the great commission and see new brothers and sisters brought to Christ this year.
