Austin's FOCUS Ministry Blog

 Just wanted to share with y'all a video from our recent Christmas devotional service. I realized that while I get to watch college students spending their evening to learn about and worship our Lord, and it's always encouraging to me, there are many of you who would be equally encouraged but aren't able to attend these devices and watch it in person. Praying this video of our students singing joy to the world lifts your spirits and gets you excited to remember Jesus more this Christmas season. https://photos.app.goo.gl/cTkgYT2ipWByx1NU9

 This year has been one full of gratitude for me. From the guys that I'm getting to spend weekly time with reading scripture together, seeing our whole community gathered in worship of our Lord, or seeing the friendships forming between them. It's all been such a gift. I first thank God for all of this, but I also want to say thank you! Here's a couple of highlights from recent weeks. Men's Friendsgiving One of several Ladie's Friendgivings A goofy scavenger hunt we went on with a couple of our student leaders A one on one bible study happening right in the middle of campus. This one is being facilitated by Kamaal, one of our brightest and most loving student leaders, reading the scriptures alongside his peer, inviting a younger student to follow Jesus more fully. I've also been so grateful to God for these two. Lucy turns two years old in just a couple of weeks. She remains one of the chief joys of Hayli and I's life. Thank you for helping to provide a home...
