As I continue to share stories of the amazing things that happened during the summer project I want to fast forward to the events that took place yesterday, July 26, 2012. With the help of the summer project, during the month of June, we were able to share the Gospel with over 450 students. Of those students that we shared with over 150 of them gave us their contact information. Many of the Campus pour Christ Ivorian students and myself, spent the weeks following the Americans departure, calling all those contacts to invite them to the National Office July 26 for our weekly prayer and worship meeting.
Throughout the meeting Thursday, the 26th, students would arrive joining us in prayer and song. For the first hour and a half there were only 8 students but eventually the rest arrived. By the beginning of the part that was dedicated to the students alone, we had 40 people and 23 of those were new students. The students were from 4 different high schools/private Universities.
We spent the time welcoming everyone, hearing where they were from, singing, a few testimonies of those already involved in the ministry and then challenging them to get involved with Campus pour Christ, joining us to win their nation for Christ. It was a very exciting time. Afterwards we had some croissants and cokes followed by multiple games of soccer. We had so many people we had to split up into 3 teams since our field is not the largest. The students seemed to have a great time. Pray that they would continue to get involved with Campus pour Christ that their lives would continue to be changed. Pray that God would use Campus pour Christ to help them read and understand God's word, pray diligently and love Jesus more.

| Even with these little goals they use goal keepers. |
