Along with other missionaries, this young missionary works with students on several different college campuses, meeting them, building relationships and then sharing Christ. Discipleship of students who are already believers, helping them study the Bible and coaching them to share their faith are also a large part of what this person does. The Lord has given this person a heart for the people in East Asia to know Him and a vision to see the country reached and changed.

FALL UPDATE:
     The semester is well underway and Fall is already here. I have been loving the cooler, but not yet frigid, weather and the blue skies that fall brings. I have been back in East Asia about seven weeks and it has truly been a wild ride of the unexpected. I have started my new role as associate team leader and, therefore, have been helping give direction to the team, as well as training the new girls on the team, and coaching our student leaders as they take ownership of our ministry here.

     I have also had the privilege and the blessing to follow up with the students that our American friends met while here this summer on a short-term mission trip. There were eleven students who indicated a decision to trust in Christ! I have been connecting these students to students already in our ministry so that they can begin to attend a church. It has been so encouraging and refreshing to spend time with these young students and to help them understand what it means to have a relationship with God.

     One of these stuents, Pony, was approached by a cult a couple of months ago. They stopped her on the street and asked her if she had an interest in the Bible; she said yes and then stayed and talked with them for two hours. At first she had been excited to meet another Christian; she then became fearful of them. They urged her to come with them and be baptized. She refused to go that night, but said she would meet them the next day. The following day as she listened to the strange things they told her, such as don't go to church and Jesus has already come back as a Korean man, she realized they were a cult and cut off contact with them. Pony had no Bible and very little knowledge of the Scriptures and the Christian faith, but the Lord protected her and showed her truth. Praise the Lord!

     Please pray for Pony and the other new believers that came to know the Lord this summer; pray that the Lord would be growing their faith. Please pray that I will deepen my dependence on the Lord. Please pray for the hundreds of freshmen that the team has met; pray that many would come to know the Lord. Please pray for Chi, a senior in my Bible study, who is currently considering full-time ministry in Central Asia after graduation.

Along with many others, Lifepath members Egwu and Ego travel to Afikpo, Nigeria to help provide surgeries and medical care to between 3,000 and 5,000 people who would otherwise go without proper care.
