“I had tried to get a Bible Study started in my house with little success for the past 2 semesters. This Summer I prayed that someone could help me… or some group. When the school year started, Tyler contacted me out of the blue to tell me about Greek IV”
-Chris, a new student House Ministry Leader (HML) in Delta Upsilon
Chris is now getting plugged into Christian community with us. It has been fun to see his eagerness to get involved and make an impact on the Greek System at Purdue.
This is how we got connected to Chris:
Our EXEC members did a series of “table talks” (going to a fraternity dinner and make an announcement about Greek IV) to a few fraternities, one of them being DU. At this table talk, they asked the brothers if they new of anyone that would be interested in “this sort of thing”. They immediately gave us the name of one of their brothers, Chris. I sent an email to Chris asking to get together to talk about what could happen in Chris’ house if he got plugged into Greek IV and if he started a ministry in his house. When we met for coffee I could tell that I was saying was ringing true. Come to find out, Chris had tried to lead a Bible study for the past few semesters without much luck… and he had been praying for help.
God answered Chris’ prayer with Greek IV. Little did Chris know that he was being prayed for all last year as DU has been on our hearts as well. God answered our prayers with Chris. He has started to meet weekly with me and other Greek Christian leaders… and since then, Chris has held a Bible study each week. STILL not one of his brothers has showed up. But Chris now has the support of an entire Greek Christian Community supporting him… and he is not in the least bit discouraged (amazingly!). It is only a matter of time before God breaks through in DU.
I look forward to writing my next story about Chris and DU and hopefully telling you all about how God has started to use Chris.
Please be praying for Chris and DU.
