This Christmas Conference was the first one where I actually had students to spend time with. Now that I had relationships with the students on my campuses, Christmas Conference was a great time to grow closer to them, as well as have fun. I had students from IUPUI, Indiana State, and Ivy Tech there.

Ivy Tech made its first appearance at the conference this year! Being a new ministry, I was excited to see 3 students come. It was a great opportunity to show them the vision of the ministry, as well as receive further training on how to continue the ministry on their campus.

On the Day of Outreach, I went out with two students that I had never met before. I went with Matt from Wabash and Suzanne from IPFW. It was fun to get to know them and we were able to share the Gospel with 6 people, 2 of which indicated decisions to receive Christ. We passed their contact information on to the church so that they can follow up with them. We also met a Hispanic family who was looking for a local Spanish-speaking church in the area. The church in that area will be able to help them in that way.
