Celebrating the power of CIY
I just got a cool email from Christ in Youth (CIY). I’ve posted a couple of times about the opportunity I had to speak at their “MOVE” conference this summer.
It was humbling because I know God uses CIY to change students lives. I’ve seen it first-hand for years and especially this year in Suncrest students when they returned from the conference in Southern Illinois. We had students who were baptized as a result and some who have given their life to ministry. Each story has it’s own power.
But there is something powerful about the numbers as a whole too. The email said that over 7000 public decisions were made by students this summer. Decisions to follow Christ. Decisions to go into ministry or be a kingdom worker. And, decisions to repent from the current course of their lives and turn back to walking personally with God. 7000. Wow.
