I got a chance to represent New Hope Christian Fellowship today at Linfield's "Faith Fair," where churches could meet students looking for a church. To be honest, there weren't very many students who came by (the weather was a little chilly), but I did get to meet a few guys and girls who are looking to find a place to worship. 
The most fun part for me was seeing a few of our own students who stopped by to say Hi (Ian, Meagan, Caitlin, Heidi, Laura, Anne...) And it was also fun getting to know a few of the other pastors and church representatives from places like Creekside, Church on the Hill, Adventure Christian, Valley Baptist and the Presbyterian Church.
I'm so glad we have a good number of college students at our church! I counted 27 young men and women last Sunday morning when we invited them up front to pray for their school year. We aim to be a church for all generations, and our students are one of those important and cherished parts of our fellowship. May we be a church that encourages them and inspires them to live their lives for God's glory!
