Towards student-led in Lithuania
The team in Vilnius (Lithuania) desires that the ministry would really be a student-led ministry. They experience encouraging things in this direction. Four years ago in an Alfa group, Judita received salvation. Now she herself is leading an Alfa group with eight students.
 Judita's Alpha Course
Irena, is a student, who Agape staff Radvile and Renata met last year. She started to grow in Christ and witness to others. She is really a leader; students follow her and listen to her. Irena realizes Christ‘s call to be light and she initiates conversations with her friends and classmates. This week, she‘ll also begins a small group in her dorm where they‘ll do Alfa courses.
The challenge to be accepted as an organization
After many years, thoughts, and prayers, Jolita and the team in Vilnius finally got an invitation to meet the Students’ Unions president. They had the chance to discuss the possibility of being registered as an organization working in the University area, like their club. Jolita writes:
"We really didn’t know what to expect on this Thursday in the meeting with top students leaders. Dovile, Irena and I faced a really skeptical view of few unbelievers. |

After struggling with the lack of student-focused churches in the area, the student ministry in Zurich decided to establish its own missional fellowship. After more than five years, this small church, CAMPUS live, continues to grow through evangelistic efforts on local campuses. More than half of the current participants have come to faith through the Zurich student ministry.
Last Sunday (24 May 2009) we baptized five students, three of whom have only been believers for about six months. One of them was Nicolas. His parents, grandparents and one uncle all came out to support him on that special occasion.

Every team planned and tried to use the Effective Study seminars as the main strategy to attract the best students and personally connect with them.

As term began at Oxford University this year the team embarked on a huge project to give a DVD called Illuminate to every Oxford fresher. This short film is made up of three student testimonies and a gospel presentation. By now the distribution has been completed in almost all of the colleges, and Christian students and Agape staff have been going back round the halls to follow up students. This is a slow process but it has led to some great conversations.
Excitingly, a number of students have become Christians later in the term. Some have believed after seeing the DVD, and others through their relationships with believers. Please pray for them, that they will have firm foundations in their faith and be protected from spiritual attack.
