Easter Story 2010

Megan — Thu, 08 Apr 2010 23:25:30 +0000

The Thursday preceding Good Friday, California High School’s Christian Club, Campus Light, passed out Easter eggs to their peers. Inside these multi-colored eggs were scripture verses from the gospel of Matthew, candy with Christ insignias, and invitations to join Campus Light every Tuesday during lunch.

After the Campus Light team handed out the eggs, some of the team members were able to talk with the students about the meaning of the eggs. Some other questions that were asked included, “What’s Campus Light? Where is it located?” Last, Campus Light members invited their fellow peers to the upcoming leadership meeting Thursday, the 15th of April.

Thanking God and praying for His continued work–Thank you!

I will sing of the steadfast love of the LORD, forever; with my mouth I will make known your faithfulness to all generations. Psalm 89:1

Dear prayer partner,

We are thanking God for a good week of ministry and fellowship, with each other and the students.

At Cal High’s rally, a Biola student named Fwas shared a deep message with 50+ students. God had had truly filled the gap in his life, even after abuse, suicide attempts, thievery, and drugs. Campus light students took initiative by giving their peers 40 tracks, 40 Gospel of John books, and some “The Case for Christ” DVDs.

Fifteen students from four schools were encouraged about the impact they could make on their campus when they met with some mentors at Troy high school. Sharing Jesus in personal evangelism went well at Fullerton and California High. Though some students were indifferent to hearing about Jesus, others appreciated taking spirituality seriously.

Really, the work at the schools we have worked with has just begun, and the main work we have done is to open up horizons for a life of outreach for the students. We are praying for God’s continued work at La Habra, California, Western, Fullerton, and Troy High Schools and their student leaders.

Thank you for partnering with us in your prayers. We understand that spiritual victories are accomplished by spiritual means, and prayer is an essential part of developing leaders to make an impact for Christ.

Psalm 89:5 Let the heavens praise your wonders, O LORD, your faithfulness in the assembly of the holy ones!

More Christian club rallies and students reaching more students

Dear prayer partner,

It is good to participate in God’s good work! Cal High’s Campus Light students invited one of their youth pastors share his testimony at their first rally this year. He shared with 50 attentive students how God had saved him from being a drug-using sex-addict. At La Habra High’s second rally, Pastor Chris McCulluck shared insights on the apostle Paul with another full house. He clearly but genuinely presented the gospel. Additionally, the club distributed a hundred more tracks and Gospel of John books. Students asked for prayer after the rally and want to initiate a monthly Bible study. God’s word and truth had impact on both campuses, making the rallies a success. Praise the Lord!

Friday is perhaps the biggest day of campus involvement this week.

Cal High is hosting another rally.
CSP Mentors are meeting with Troy High School for the first time to share what students can do and how we can help mentor them.
We pray for the Lord’s empowerment as we share Jesus in personal evangelism with students at Cal High andFullerton High.

It has been a blessed week, full of God’s workings even as he works in unseen ways. We desire to finish strong. Thank you for continuing to bring these outreaches before Father God in your prayers!

Sincerely in Christ,

~Team January Project

January Project Detail Update

Michael Watson — Wed, 20 Jan 2010 07:14:58 +0000

As we begin this week of the January Project many exciting and interesting happenings arose. To start the first night of January Project, 1/17/10, CSP members met at Starbucks and God began His work. God specifically drew CSP mentor Zach DeVesta aside to speak to a struggling individual about the Lord. The resulting conversation consisted of a testimony of a broken man who had lost all hope in the grace of Jesus Christ.

· Tuesday: went to visit La Habra to hang posters, pass out flyers to promote this week’s events that La Habra’s Christian club has worked so diligently to compile.

· Wednesday: Trevor Ford will be playing worship at La Habra’s Christian Club during lunch. Pizza will also be freely distributed to the individuals that are interested in attending this event. Fullerton and California High School students will be sharing Jesus with their peers. Please continue to pray for the spirit’s work in all this spiritual outreach!

· Thursday: Chris McCulluck will be offering a Bible study during the lunch period of the La Habra students. The Christian Club will be offering free pizza with courtesy to La Habra High School.

· Friday: La Habra’s Christian Club is still constructively deciding upon the activities of Friday.

Tuesday, January 19th, CSP mentor’s Zachary DeVesta, Danielle Decena, Dan Getzfred, and Michael Towson visited La Habra High School to help hang posters and pass out flyers to promote the Christian Club’s week long event. We had roughly thirty students from the Christian club participate in the hanging and distributing of the posters and flyers. Many of the students separated into small groups to their fellow peers that were still on campus with regards to the rain. It was truly a blessing that it had rained because students at La Habra are allowed to go off campus during lunch period and due to the weather they all remained on campus to receive the posters and flyers regarding the weeklong event. These posters included questions and statements such as, “Are you satisfied?” “Do you feel alone?” “Come to the Campus Light meeting this week and discuss your questions about God with us.” Thanks to the hard work that the La Habra Christian Club put into the making of these materials, it looks promising that many students will have the opportunity to hear the Word of God.

The January Project Prepares to Share Jesus

“For everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved. How are they to call on one they have not believed in? And how are they to believe in one they have not heard of?” Romans 10:13-14a

Dear prayer partner,

The January Project has begun–a full week of CSP ministry focus and outreach, praise the Lord! Students made posters and shared plans for an exciting week of rallies at La Habra and California High Schools. Students will promote their rallies on Tuesday. The rallies launch on Wednesday!

The Campus Light club at California High is amazingly self-motivated and unified. Please pray that their enthusiasm for spiritual things would continue when as they share Jesus with their peers every day for the rest of the week. La Habra high is doing great! Pray for boldness. Students from both schools are sharing Jesus with their campus tomorrow in personal witnessing. It’s our prayer that God would open the hearts of students, to do this spiritual work by His Spirit.

Thank the Lord with us that schools are ready for a week outreach! We pray it would be life changing.
