February05 :: ministry spotlight . Butler University

by Ryan on 2.1.05

As you can probably guess, meeting our staff teams and getting to know some students from the Indiana schools has gotten us very excited about our future ministry there. We have only been given a small taste of what is to come, but we are hungry for more.

Butler University is one of the larger ministries that the Indiana Catalytic team is working with. The movement at Butler has a little over 200 students involved and it is evident this semester that God is working in each one of their hearts to bring him glory, which happens to be the theme and new found fire on the campus of Butler to… “bring the Glory back to God.”

God is breaking down many of the barriers this ministry has had on campus from being a group focused on inward fellowship to a… “revolutionary movement focused on winning students to Christ, building them up in their faith, and sending them out to do the same.” - Eric, a Butler student

The Leadership team has just been restructured into three teams…Win, Build and Send.

“With the larger teams we are able to be much more active…We are
back to one weekly meeting which has given us a sense of unity once more,
and has really helped keep students fired up.
Also with that meeting and the new leadership team our talks this year are focused
into 3 series of 4 talks dealing with winning people for Christ, building them up in Christ,
and sending them out as servants of Christ.” - Sathish, a Butler Student

 
Ross Hall – on the campus of Butler
 

Another amazing thing that is happening as you are reading this letter is a men’s ministry that is being born on campus. It is called Doxaza Theos, meaning, Glory to God in Greek, bringing Glory to the Lord with anything and everything that we do.

“One of our goals is to give every guy in Ross Hall (a mostly freshman dormitory) a chance to hear
the Gospel. We have also been meeting to help build each other up, and encourage each other
through biblical truth, together as men of faith. It has been amazing. We just had a Discipleship
night this past Friday where the Lord brought a few relationships together, and we are trusting in
Him to start up more according to His timing.”
- Sathish

This is just one campus were you are involved through our ministry, partnering with us to accomplish God’s will and bring Him glory in everything that we do.

In HIM,

Please Pray

> For the students in the ministry at Butler, that they will have courage and fire to become a revolutionary group on campus.

> For Doxaza Theos, the new mens ministry on campus, that it would continue to grow and flourish according to Gods will.

> That the men in Ross Hall would be open to the gift that Christ has given us all, the gift of eternal life with Him.
