We would like to share some happenings from the North Myrtle Beach (NMB) summer mission in South Carolina.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This summer, at North Myrtle Beach, three college men from different universities grew closer to God while learning to share their faith with others. Hudson, Josh, and Alex experienced rich times of discipleship with their group leader, Cru staff member Jordan. They also had fruitful gospel interactions with many beach-goers, such as Lincoln.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A rising high school senior from Ohio, Lincoln, as it turns out, had been exploring Christianity throughout the past year. Initially he seemed apprehensive, but Lincoln soon warmed up to the Cru students. He was talking with them for over an hour and eventually put his trust in Jesus. In a follow up text, Lincoln said: \u201cIt was great meeting you guys. It definitely wasn\u2019t a coincidence. God knew I was straying and I\u2019m sure he sent you two to help me and answer questions. It made my day that you did that. I love what you\u2019re doing and I hope you reach out and save more people. Thank you so much!\u201d

Altogether NMB Summer Mission had 2880 conversations about faith background and beliefs, shared the gospel 805 times, and helped 266 people\u2014including Lincoln\u2014 say yes to Jesus. Meanwhile, Hudson, Josh, and Alex, along with all the other NMB Cru students, are returning to campus better equipped to lead their fellow students in Bible study, prayer, evangelism, and following Jesus.

Last year, we wrote about Tienna and Yujin, 2 interns who Rochelle coached to prepare them to come to Cru Headquarters here in Orlando for 1 year. We are excited to share the news that Yujin returned home to South Korea and became an intern with South Korea CCC and Tienna came back for a second year of internship but this time with the Unto humanitarian outreach ministry! Praise the Lord!<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
