From Laughter to Dedication PDF Print E-mail
Renata and Irina
Renata and Irina
When Urs Wolf was teaching Effective Seminar in Vilnius in September 2009, Irina was one of the more then 50 participants. When Urs shared about finding a personal relationship with God, Irina was the only student who laughed at the phrase “personal relationship with God”. Renata Ramanauskaite writes about the Follow up with Irina:

“I felt a little bit intimidated to follow up a student who is in a master's program of criminal psychology and was laughing at having personal relationship with God. Actually this was one of the easiest follow up meetings that I have ever had. Irina knows what she wants in life and had clear questions about God. Last September through December, we met to study the Gospel of John. When I returned from my trip to the US, I learned that Irina had made a decision to follow Christ. Irina is fun, outgoing and a true leader. This week she told me, “I would like to glorify God with my life and that when others look at me they would want what I have.” This was pretty impressive to hear from a brand new believer.”

The team from Vilinius has now the great opportunity to teach an “Effective study seminar” in the official Freshman Camp in August. Irina will be one of the teachers. She, 2 other volunteers and the team of Vilnius will have training from June 16th to 18th. Thanks for praying.

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.

Baptisms in Zurich PDF Print E-mail
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.

Most of the students who have come to Christ in Tirana have been part of that seminar. Here is the story of Lando and Artan, told by our staff:

Students at Oxford LibraryAs 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.
