Partnering With the Next Generation As We Do
Ministry
u Last Sunday 2 college students from the FSU Baptist Collegiate Ministry went with me to Forest Heights Baptist where I was preaching. They spoke for 5 minutes about their involvement in international ministry on the campus and did an outstanding job.
u This month I will lead a witnessing workshop at Crossway Baptist and two college students will go with me to help with leadership.
u A FAMU BCM student went with me to share a testimony at a local church.
u A panel of seven college students helped me during a sermon as we talked about the "Future of the Church".
u We took conference leaders from the Florida Baptist Convention to meet with students on the campuses of FSU and FAMU and lead discipleship workshops there.
u This past February, when the Association hosted our Operation: Training Church Leadership conference, we had three workshops just for students on "Leadership" and "Evangelism".
u The BCM sends out teams to local churches to share music, drama and testimonies.
u This summer, dozens of college students from our Association are all over the world doing mission work. Every week I receive an email from one team as they travel through Southeast Asia.
u I was in a local church this past Sunday night and was thrilled to see more than 30 students taking places of leadership with the music, drama, taking up the offering, leading in prayer, greeting visitors, taking care of technology needs, running the web site and leading in small group Bible studies all over town.
u This summer, hundreds of students will help our churches lead mission trips, camps and VBS weeks.
u June 8-13, around 100 students will come in to Tallahassee and do construction projects all over the city of Tallahassee in the name of Christ. They will share the gospel verbally and through their sweat and blisters as they care for families who need help.
I could go on, but I think you get the idea. We have a tremendous resource in our students on the campus and in our churches and I thank God for them.
