On the road again.....

Wow...May 17 already. Hamline students are taking finals, moving out of the dorms, making final arrangements for summer jobs. It's a busy time of year, and that goes for the ministry of InterVarsity as well. We've spent the past few weeks finalizing our leadership selection process for next school year, and I'm excited to say that things are shaping up to have students overseeing prayer, service, event planning, general publicity, and several Bible studies starting in September. There is a lot of excitement brewing for what next year has in store, and that means a lot of preparation is needed over the summer. Please be praying for wisdom as we take these next steps.

Also, this coming Saturday, one student and I will be leaving for the Upper Peninsula of Michigan for Chapter Focus Week. It is a week of training, teaching, and worship at one of InterVarsity's camps. Students from all over the Midwest will be in attendance, including approximately 100 who will receive training to lead small groups on campus. Please be praying for Nick (Hamline Student) as he takes part in the small group leader training that God would work through that time to prepare him for amazing things back on campus. Please also be in prayer for me as I help out with the Small Group training...there's plenty to get ready and plenty for me to learn.

This summer will be a busy time of traveling for training and meetings, so hopefully I'll be able to sit down with many of you and share stories about how God is at work. If you want to get something on the schedule, I'll be in Wisconsin/Illinois at the end of June/beginning of July, California at the end of July, and randomly throughout Minnesota for the rest of the summer. Let me know if you want to meet up!

Thanks for reading, and many thanks for your prayers.
