Higher Ground



Campus Crusade has produced a powerful evangelism tool for use during hurricane Katrina recovery efforts. Similar to the Fallen But Not Forgotten magazine of 9/11, Higher Ground offers comfort and a message of hope in Jesus. It is a resource you can use while you are serving the afflicted in praying, caring, and sharing ways.

You can preview the booklet and order copies of Higher Ground at http://www.kartinahigherground.com/.

    Our concert at Nicolet Technical College in Wisconsin was meant to be pre-evangelistic, but Teresa ended up sharing the gospel anyway! It was funny because, after the show, she mentioned to us that in the middle of her sharing she realized she wasn't supposed to, but it was already too late to stop and just went ahead and finished her testimony to a good-sized crowd! Amazing how God works sometimes!

    One of the academic vice-presidents heard us off in the distance and really liked the fact that we were doing an outside show! They said that was HUGE in building credibility with both the student body and the campus faculty.

    Huge with the student body because it broke the misconceptions about Christianity being an uptight religion, and huge with the campus faculty because it was a positive event that they recognized and appreciated. I hope that will open doors of trust for more Crusade opportunities to share there. Please take a moment to pray for Nicolet Technical College and the spiritual condition of students there. Thank You!
