Spring Break is here and so is our mission trip to Owasso, OK. There will be 10 of us working with children both at FBC and in a few nearby apartment complexes leading bible clubs. The dates are March 13th thru 19th. As always, we would appreciate your thoughts and prayers.
As for the current semester, noondays have averaged in the 40’s; weekly bible studies 11; group prayer time has about 7; and leadership 10. Several new students have attended the last few weeks at noonday. On campus, we had 65 at Pizza Rush. Movie Night and Game Night averaged 15 persons.
We are trying some new material to teach Character, Values and Leadership. It is called Habitudes by Tim Elmore. Short lessons with images and scripture to teach quality principles that affect our lives and culture. Currently, I have used it with one on one meetings with students as well as led a few group discussions and even shared a lesson at a recent noonday. The opportunity is also available to find ways to use this information at WOSC. There is support from the President, Vice-President and Dean of Student Affairs.
God is working among these college students. I am seeking His discernment in new ways to reach them.
Have a blessed day in the Lord, Randy T.

What a Winter! The “old timers” say it is the worst they’ve ever seen in Southwest Oklahoma. The cold, the blizzard, the ice storm has been very tough to deal with for all of us! Much thanks goes to the churches, disaster relief teams, emergency management personnel, relief organizations, electrical service crews from everywhere, businesses, and all the many different people who helped get us through the crisis. Things are getting back to more “normal” slowly but surely. I think we’re all glad winter is winding down and spring will soon be here!
