Praise God a Donor!

Good news people! I just got my 2nd Donor! God has truly been great to me as the first Donor approached me about giving and I didn't even ask them! I did have my first donor meeting tonight though and it went very well - now I have 2 =). It feels good to start on it and make some progress. I am so grateful to both my donors for their trust in me & Intervarsity with their funds. I pray that we will not disappoint their investment but give God a great return on his money!

Secondly, I had dinner with my Dad & the President of International Business @ A. Bush Brewery! Talk about a jam packed evening. The Pres. is a pretty nice guy (as most business execs I've met so far seem to be). I even told him about Intervarsity's Catalyst event going on this summer and he seemed very interested in the work we're doing for the future leaders of tomorrow's corporate world.

For those that haven't heard of it - "Catalyst" is a week long leadership retreat targeting only student leaders in each IV chapter in the Central Region (this year there are 200+ students attending). The retreat will help them to develop skills in terms of teamwork, visioning and goal setting, and practically working towards those goals in partnership with each other. And the funnest part for me is that I get to help Betsy E - Urbana Worship Team Assistant Director, with leading worship =). Fun times people, fun times!

Speaking of Urbana, tomorrow is the start of practice session #4 for us. (I think it's #4 anyway) - keep us in your prayers! Thanks to everyone for your support & prayers!
