We are in the final stretch to the conference coming up this weekend! Please pray that Connexions is a time where the students can feel connected and close to God through this weekend. That each student and staff that would come would draw closer to God and walk away with a new passion in their hearts.
This week I will be finishing up final plans for this conference as well as continuing to be on campus each day. Pray that as busyness can get in the way, that I would find time to rest well and prepare well for my discipleship times on campus as well as for the conference.

Discipleship Groups
So yesterday I started 2 discipleship groups. The first group is with 4 girls who are older students and the group was so much fun! I love how real they are with each other and how we can come together and live life with each other and pray for each other. This will be a group where we can come and share how ministry is going and read the word together and grow deeper with our relationships with God and with each other.
The second group was with 2 people who have recently accepted Christ and begun living their life for Him. It was SO awesome meeting up with them and being able to see people thirsty for growing and learning more about who God is and how to have a relationship with Him.
So yeah, these two groups will be on Tuesdays at 11 and 12 and it is seriously one of my favorite parts of the job. I love seeing students thirsty for growth and being able to live life with the girls. :)

Prayer Please!
I think most of you know I have been in charge of planning this conference coming up in a couple weeks. It has been going well, but there is still a lot to plan. I would love prayer for this since it is under 2 weeks away.
The conference is for all the new south wales students and will be held March 30 through April 1. Please pray that this weekend is fully led by Jesus and that the students that come would grow in their faith and their relationship with God.

Women's Night
So last Friday night we had the girls over for dessert and hanging out. It was so good to be able to connect well with the students and be able to have them build community and relationships. It is cool to see them living life together and really building each other up through constant prayer and encouragement. :)
Please continue to pray for the ministry here as we are in the process of putting together discipleship groups for the year and getting the students connected within the ministry.
It has been a really good year and God has been really moving on campus through students so that is exciting! Please pray that the momentum would continue to build and students would continue to grow and be challenged in their faith. :)

Meeting up with students
The past week I have been meeting up with students from last year and it has been such a joy to see them again. It has been awesome to catch up over coffee or a meal and hear how their summers were and how they are doing with God. We have had many tears and laughs and it has been so good to live life with these girls out here! :) It is encouraging to see them walking in their faith, taking risks, and living life to the fullest.
Along with planning for this year and meeting up with students, I have also been in charge of planning a conference for all of New South Wales. I am putting together a weekend retreat for the students and the planning has been hectic. It is a lot of fun getting to plan the retreat, but it is also a time for me to lean on God because I don't really know what I am doing and need Him to lead me in the planning.
Overall, ministry is going really well. I feel like God is really stretching me and challenging me to take on more leadership roles and tasks that I don't really know how to do, but it has been awesome to see God move and lead me in these areas. :)
Thanks for all your prayers! Please pray that as I continue to plan for the Connexions conference I would be leaning on God's strength. Also, that the women's ministry on campus would continue to grow students in their faith. :)
