With 700 members, the China underground churches baptized 62 campus students last year! Since 2002, the campus baptisms have been steadily increasing. The re-emphasis of Campus Ministry under the leadership of the China Mission Council is seeing encouraging results. Here is one of the good news happened recently.
Henry (not his real name) is one of our newly baptized brothers in the campus ministry in China so far this year. He has a rather legendary past - he quit school while still in junior high but went on to become a postgraduate student at his University through self study. Henry is a friend of John, who has been a Christian for only two months!
One thing that characterizes Henry is his serious attitude when he was studying the Bible. He pondered on different issues and asked many questions during the study. During the 'sin study', Henry reflected on his life and wrote a 20-page letter to himself about the sin in his life! After understanding the meaning of a disciple's life, Henry challenged himself to make new friends. Even though he is an introvert and is not very good at expressing himself, he talked to and made nine new friends. Another good news is that this year, our goal is to baptize 100 campus students. Already, there have been 8 people coming to Christ in the month of January, on one campus along! Please pray with us so that every campus can do their best to glorify God in 2008!
