In partnership with a faculty member, InterVarsity staff trained students at John Brown University in proxe stations and the Big Story.
In one of their following class periods the professor sent his 20+ students to visit a Northwest Arkansas Community College, a campus where staff are starting an InterVarsity chapter, to practice what they learned. They led the the Colorblind proxe for two hours on campus, practiced listening and intercessory prayer, and did pocket proxes all over campus.
All of this was very helpful for the local staff, who is doing follow-up and a gathering event as a result of the outreach. The JBU professor said, “I’ve been waiting 10 years to do something like this, we’ve just never had anyone to partner with.” What a great first step of partnership!
As a former InterVarsity staff in Northwest Arkansas, it is so exciting to see God on the move there. Praise God with me!
