Reaching Russia for God's Glory: And away we go!

Reaching Russia for God's Glory

Hello all,

This blog will be used to communicate with and to see how God's glory is being spread among Ekateringburg, Russia! This blog will be used to communicate with Jordan Marcum, Sarah Ingham, and Ryan Bibb. The three of us are from Eastern Kentucky University and we have been apart of Campus Crusade for Christ or CRU for the past few years of our college career. We have been blessed to have this opportunity to share the name of Jesus Christ among Russian students this summer and we are glad for people who have supported us financially and in prayer. We hope through this blog you will be able to experince the opportunity you have invested in by what we post on a weekly basis. We want to thank all of you that are reading this blog and most of all thanking God for what he has done not only in our lives but the lives we will get to impact this summer through our risen Savior!

Jordan, Ryan and Sarah

And away we go!

We have been in Russia now for 6 days and its been an adventure already. We have encountered many students and began inviting them to many events and having appointments to meet with them. Some of our students have meet with their pen pals and have began sharing the gospel with them! Praise God for the seeds being sowed.
As for my ministry its been going well. I have gotten a few numbers to start meeting up with some students this week. Be praying that these meetings will go as the Lord has planned. Our Compass meeting last week went very well and have over 50 students to show up. But we pray that even more will come. Pray for opportunities to meet students and that we will have team unity and be encouraging to one another. Pray for the believers here in Russia and that they would begin to share their faith and that the church they attend would grow and be filled with the word.
