Bristol, England StudentConference Update! 

 

Praise the Lord for bringing seven students from Rome to Bristol for the European Student Conference!  Considering that we had not even heard about the conference until after the registration had passed, it is amazing that any of the students were able to go.  For many of them, it was their first time to England, first time to try Starbucks and their first time to try beans for breakfast!

Our students were able to join about 200 other students from all over Europe to hear more about what Agape Europe is all about.  I think for some it was good for them to see that the Lord is moving all over Europe and that Agape Italia is a part of something bigger.

While sleeping on the floor at night, trying to understand Brits with their funny accent, or even learning to drink tea instead of espresso, these students took some great things away from the conference.  Some things were a bit of a shock for them, mainly the style of worship was nothing like they were use to, but other things were priceless for them to come away with, like a since of community.  Our students were cracking jokes together, exchanging phone numbers and becoming friends!

I think students were able to gain a better understanding of the heart behind what we do here in Rome and even understanding the need to share the gospel with those around them.  I am so excited to see what the Lord continues to do in their lives and teach them from this conference.

Thank you so much for praying and partnering with me to impact eternity in the eternal city! bristol-group-shot.jpg
