What’s been happening lately in the Woodlawn Campus Ministry?  Actually, quite a bit.  God has faithfully answered our prayers for more student and young adult Bible studies.  Fridays, I have had the blessing of studying with Marcus Sanchez through the book of Hebrews and Wednesdays, a group of 7 of us are studying through the Gospel of Luke.  I am also very proud of our college students who have dedicated the first weekend of each month to our Doulos Saturday ("service" Saturday).  With their energy and enthusiasm, we were able to help Steve Smith work on the John & Gregoria Moreno’s home and, two weeks ago, help Helena Orr move.

Sunday mornings, Troy Gailey and I have been team-teaching through a series on the Old Testament’s enduring message of God’s covenant love.  The goal is simple: to get us all digging more into God’s word, and specifically, the Old Testament.  And, of course, Carla & Shane Copher have continued to do a remarkable job at organizing our Adopt-a-Student Program.

Please be prayerful for a number of upcoming activities, including SNL this Sunday night at the Mabry’s (February 16) and the annual 24-Hour Prayer Vigil (March 21-22), our Spring Retreat with Hillcrest, University, & Minter Lane (April 11-13).

Yours for Him,
Dwayne

All are invited to attend the World Humanitarian and Relief Conference this coming Saturday and Sunday.  Ten humanitarian organizations representing our fellowship are hosting the conference, which will begin at 5:30 p.m. Saturday and Sunday afternoon, 2 until 5:30.  It is to evaluate and demonstrate how humanitarian aid to the poor and needy opens hearts to the Gospel of Christ.  See the program on the bulletin board in the foyer.
