I met Olivia [pictured left] and Petra [right] while speaking at the Oklahoma State Cru Retreat in September. Olivia had been coming around the Cru movement for a couple of years but never willing to move forward with Jesus. That weekend she gave her life to Christ. Before returning to campus she posted on her Facebook, “I decided to give my life to Christ…I am finally ready to move on and not be so angry, sad, lonely, and scared anymore.”
Petra is a believer from Finland, who is studying abroad at OkState for the year. She said she was learning everything she could about campus ministry while she’s here to be able to reach her friends when she gets back to Helsinki. I have already connected her with our Cru student ministry leaders back in her hometown. How exciting to send a trained leader back to her country.
