Summit '14 #2

Hey guys, as I said, I'll tell you about Summit. haha. The second I went to post the last one, my internet died, soooooooo, I've been playing Legend of Zelda everyday for the last 3 days. haha

Anyways, Summit was cool. There were a LOT of students. 130! from 7 campuses. We had 14 from Carleton and it was a great time. Gregg Hinzelman was the speaker (he's the regional director). He had 3 main sessions to speak at and so he spoke about Prayer, Evangelism, and the life of Peter. All three were really great talks.

Prayer was all about praying specifically, seeing God answer prayer, and the resulting increase in faith and asking God for bigger things, and just the cycle there.
Evangelism was all about just looking at the Acts Church and what they were doing and how they saw God bring so many people to a saving knowledge of Christ. He looked at like the word counts and essentially it all boiled down to: you see people come to know Christ when you share the gospel. As simple as that.
Peter's life was all like, just taking those steps of faith. Peter followed Jesus, took initiative, took risks, was bold, humble, and focused, and we see him being used to start the Acts church, we see him do crazy things, but at the same time, he was just a normal person.

Carleton as always had awesome campus times, and so much Spirit. haha We didn't do very well at Soccer or Ultimate though. haha but we had the best team cheers! We teamed up with uOttawa and Vanier College to form a team of 10 students to face off against Queens, Concordia, and McGill, who each had like 15-20 people on their teams. Anyways, 1. We are the Ravens, 2. We are the GeeGees, 3. We are the Cheetahs, 4. More, more, more!!!

I think everyone had pretty awesome times. Got to share a testimony on the Sunday morning and ya. Good time to get away. My phone got wet in the lake (after sports we ended up throwing everyone into the lake. lol) but is fine now. Uhh. Ya.

I think the main things I am taking back are just the need to pray specifically and to go share the gospel with people if we want to see lives changed.

Ttyl.
