After another summer has flown by, classes begin at UNO tomorrow morning! The first couple weeks of classes are always pretty hectic. As a staff team, we planned numerous activities and events for this week in hopes of serving and meeting students. But, housing directors rejected our ideas, instead wanting us to take part in University sponsored events.
So, we will be taking part in all the activities of UNO Welcome Week 2011. And what a great opportunity it will be for us. This is an opportunity for us to come alongside students and make friends with non-Christians. And not only that, but a great opportunity to take the students already involved in our ministry with us and begin to cast that vision to them of making friends with non-Christians and serving the campus. Rather than asking them to come to us, we will be actively going to them.
I am thankful that our plans were denied by the University. The result is that we were forced to think and plan more strategically, and I believe that God will use this week for his glory.
