More stories of God at work!

More testimonies from Basileia's student leadership conference. 

Thank you so much for allowing me to grow deeper in my faith at Basileia!  I can't wait to put God's word into action next semester as I enter into leadership on E-board at Fredonia.  God has beautiful plans for me and I'm so undeserving of His Grace, but still He chose to call me child!  [Sophomore]

Thank you for your generosity and prayer.  IVCF has helped me and my friends form closer relationships with God and has provided many opportunities to be His hands and feet on campus and in the community.  Thank you for being a friend to students like me who desire to see God move! [Junior]

Thank you so much for blessing me with the funds for Basileia.  This week I was faced with the questions "What does it mean to follow Jesus where He goes?"  "What's holding you back from following completely?" I realized that I am very weak.  I often times doubt God's faithfulness and limit His works to my own capabilities.  I have had a lot of time to spend in prayer asking God to kill the doubt and renew my faith.  During the Retreat of Silence, He showed me this word and I hope it is encouraging to you as it was to me.  Romans 5:2  "Because of faith, we stand in an undeserving privilege, surrendering to His leadership.  Praise God that His mercies are new every morning.  [Sophomore]

Thank you very much for the generous donations you have given to InterVarsity.  Personally, it allowed me to attend Basileia.  While at this Christian retreat, I experienced God in new ways and grew much closer in my walk with Jesus.  InterVarsity has changed my life as well as many other students'!  Some have made the decision to follow Christ while others have grown closer to Him.  WIthout your donations, much of this would not be possible. [Senior]

Thank you so much for blessing me with the opportunity to experience God this week at Basileia.   As a member of the Fall 2015 E-board [Student leaders] at Fredonia, I took away from all the messages on being more missional.  On the last night, the word was from Matthew 25:45.  God has really been pressing on my heart to love the least of these while at Fredonia, that will look like reaching out to the inclusive education students at Fredonia and in my dorm.  Next semester I will be intentional on reaching three specific girls in my dorm.  Praise God for the heart H has give me for His creation. Proverbs 31:8-9 [Sophomore]
