Overview

Reaching international students with the love and message of Jesus Christ is best done in the context of an authentic, unconditional relationship. In this environment, friendship grows, mutual trust is built, and faith is naturally lived out and shared.

Pray

  • Prayer is our starting point.
  • Prayer opens doors of opportunity that we might see a movement of God.
  • Prayer opens hearts to God’s work as we pray over our campuses.
  • Prayer mobilizes God’s people as our team prays together.
