Colorado Serving Opportunities

This Summer was full of opportunities to Serve:

Just following MTL training, at our National Staff Conference, I had a really cool opportunity to do a few things on stage during our Campus Ministry time.

All three service opportunities allowed me to use the gifts God gave me to bring Him glory! 

One opportunity was following Roger Hershey's talk on "Tensions in Ministry", where a few ladies and I wrote tensions we experience in ministry as graffiti piece, outlining the words "But God" (pictured right).

The 2nd opportunity was to interpret (using American Sign Language) a mini concert for a band of "musicianaires" (music missionaries) committed to missions outreach, known as LEVEL 3:16.

With two male emcees rapping several verses and three vocalist keeping in beat with DJ KB, this was definitely an exciting challenge!
The best part of the performance was the relationships I started with the band members before the concert. I got to play with new friends in a way that brought more ATTENTION to God's name!


The last way I was able to serve the staff this Summer has to do with technology.

1. Cru offered staff around the country opportunities to bring their tech issues to the Power Bar, which I worked a few shifts in.
2. They also offered opportunities to get training in how to use Cru Apps by Google. I was able to assist three individuals to best use their technology to advance God's kingdom and save time in doing so.



Neat view from the social media deck

3. One fun thing I also did was help with the social media deck, managing tweets and Facebook posts about the conference. 

Technology is one of the main ways people connect today and it was fun to see the virtual Cru world get noticed across the nation. :)
