UCC
The Church of the Harvest in Lexington SC sent us a really good team. Besides helping with our regular midnight outreach in Dungarvan on Friday night, we spent the week on University College Cork campus for “Freshers week” (the beginning of classes). It is designed to help the first year students get associated with the University’s clubs and organizations. We had some crazy ideas to promote ‘Living Stones”, a student ministry we are in the process of establishing. We started the first one years ago on UCD in Dublin. This will be the second. First we tried “Do You Want A Kiss?” by giving out Hershey kisses. ‘Who Da Man?’ was another where our strong men put up good fights with an arm wrestling competition. We had other ideas that we didn’t end up using because of the success that our other events brought. These were just conversation starters to get people interested, giving us the opportunity to tell them what we’re all about. And during all the week we gave out free tea and coffee. This is a very effective approach to meeting people and starting valuable relationships. We do this quite often, but this time was special as we were very graciously lent a 4000 euro cappuccino maker that is attached to a moped cart. There are only two of these in Ireland! It’s very cool. We are now following up a number of students that showed great interest in what we are doing and are establishing a Student Alpha. Below are photos of the week.

Our family is doing well, But kids keep growing, Michael has moved out and moved to Cork. He is in his last year at UCC. Genia is in her last year of secondary school and will go next year to college in the States. Boo-hoo!
Genia was invited to a friend’s “Debs” (like a prom for you guys in the States) She is gorgeous

A fun day at King John’s Castle, Dungarvan. (This is the famous King John of Robin Hood and the magna carta. He was twice in Dungarvan and had this castle built.)
