Jersey Cru - Sent Ones

The last Friday of each month, students from
around the state gather to connect with God through song, storytelling, and Bible. The last Friday in April, I was privileged to address the future leaders of New Jersey about how they can influence their peers, family & professors for Christ.

NJMetro Summit

Nearly 100 students showed up!
Sept. 14th 7-11pm, nearly 100 students showed up to a room on the College ave Campus of Rutgers University to realign themselves to the mission of this movement and to reconnect with students from around the state involved in similar ministries. They listened to Mark Scott, our new state director, cast vision for the ministry.






They connected with staff and students from across the state, sharing stories about all that God is doing from Kean University to Rowan University in south NJ.



They planned for how best they would each reach their campus for Christ, influencing the state and ultimately the world!  Praise God for all that He has done!
This is one of our new banners! :)

Jersey Metro Planning Summit - Tecumseh 2012

This Friday is the Jersey Metro Planning Retreat at Tecumseh! 
This is where we make plans for the semester! :)

Tecumseh Planning Retreat:
Students just returned from winter break, classes have started and they're barely back on their feet. It's times like this when we need the body of Christ the most and where we need to realign ourselves to the mission God has called us to and refocus our vision and plans. We’re getting away for a weekend of prayer, training, planning and connecting with others. Pray for us as our students come and readjust their focus as we realign ourselves to the vision of our ministry as a state.

When: This Friday, January 27-28th, 2012.

Check out this email I created to inform our students.

Jersey Metro Mission:
"By all possible means, let us advance God's kingdom by making Christ fully known on every campus, influencing the state and ultimately the world."

Tecumseh

Jersey Metro students pray for the state
This was our planning retreat back in January. Without this retreat, I'm not sure half the things happening on campus would be possible today. Students are currently so overwhelmed with work and classes, that planning for ministry stuff would be impossible at this point.

Thank God that that's not really an issue for most of our students. One thing we planned for ahead of time at this retreat, was as a state to have an event called "Quest Week". This is a week where our students from all 33 campuses around the state take the initiative in the power of the Holy Spirit to step out on campus and share the Gospel of Jesus Christ with students, faculty and staff at their schools. From 5-question spiritual surveys called "Quest" to picture surveys called "Soularium" and outreaches called "Pizza and God", students have been trained in a variety of tools to strategically bring up "Jesus" in their conversations! This week has been covered in prayer and hundreds of conversations have already been had and it's only Wednesday! God is doing great things here and I'm so happy to have you as part of it.

To the right is a picture of some of the students leaders at Kean University, my alma mater. These students worked diligently to come up with their own mission statement, vision, and goals they want to see accomplished specifically at Kean! They have been meeting weekly to discuss the details of these plans, pray, and see God move. Thursday night is their typical weekly meeting, but these students are working everyday to see God be glorified at Kean! This Quest week, they have shared their faith in the University center through Soularium (pictured below) and even tonight through "Chill & Chat", their version of "Pizza & God", which is an open conversation where pizza is given for free and conversations about God and spiritual things are promoted.
