In August 1993 I arrived at Washington University ready to start my college career. Some of the first people to welcome me to campus were a part of InterVarsity on campus.
Joining InterVarsity was a significant way that God worked transformation in my life. Through the group, I developed friends with whom I could discuss the alternate views of the Bible we encountered in class; I found encouragement to examine deeply the life of Jesus and share him with others; and I saw the power of a diverse Christian community seeking reconciliation.
The four years I spent in college and particularly my first six months, was one of the most significant periods of spiritual growth I have experienced.
In June I took time to leave a stone of remembrance in this space and give God thanks for the work he did in my life during these years.
Join me in praying for students and faculty who will come to campus this month that they may discover Jesus in a fresh way through the thousands of InterVarsity students, volunteers, staff, and faculty that are preparing to welcome them.
