The Campus Ministry of Campus Crusade for Christ is preparing for a historic gathering next summer in South Korea. CM2007 will be a gathering of 20,000 students from all over the world. This is the first global student mission's conference in Campus Crusade's history. CM2007 was conceived as a way to accelerate the launching and building of spiritual movements on every campus in the world. At the heart of this gathering is the challenge for students to adopt the 6,000 unreached campuses. Students have historically been at the center of change. For over 50 years, over 20,000 missionaries went to the world with the Student Volunteer Movement. That movement began in answer to a challenge made at the end of the very first Christian conference for college students in 1886. The organizers of CM2007 hope that next summer's conference will launch the next movement of students that will help to reach all the campuses of the world. The conference has three primary themes: Christ Magnified - Calling students to live a life surrendered to the Lordship of Christ and to exalt our magnificent God and Savior. Much of the conference will focus on helping participants see our holy God in a new and clear way. Connected Movements - Connecting the hearts and lives of our students and staff as a global community of campus movements. We will learn from, encourage, and be challenged by others from different walks of life, cultures, languages and experiences. Completing the Mission - Unleashing a new generation of spiritual movement builders to strengthen existing movements, and launch new movements on the unreached campuses of the world. Every participant will be challenged to help fulfill Jesus’ Great Commission in Matthew 28:18-20. This past summer, Jeff created the website for English speakers. The website contains video, a prayer guide and other information about this historic conference. Check out the website at http://cm2007.net. Jeff designed the website for the CM2007 confer- ence. The conference will take place between June 30 and July 5, 2007 in Busan, South Korea. This is the first global student mission's conference. Praises Lydia joined our family on August 24. We are so thankful for our healthy little girl. God provided the mon- ey we needed to pur- chase a new minivan for our family. Prayer Requests Fall Outreach This is a strategic time of year on the college campus. It was during the month of October that Jeff heard the gospel as a college freshman after attending a couple of different outreaches. Please pray for the outreach efforts of our 1195 movements nationwide. Pray that God would draw students to himself and that lives would be changed this fall.

The Campus Ministry of Campus Crusade for Christ is preparing for a historic gathering next summer in South Korea. CM2007 will be a gathering of 20,000 students from all over the world. This is the first global student mission's conference in Campus Crusade's history.

CM2007 was conceived as a way to accelerate the launching and building of spiritual movements on every campus in the world. At the heart of this gathering is the challenge for students to adopt the 6,000 unreached campuses.

Students have historically been at the center of change. For over 50 years, over 20,000 missionaries went to the world with the Student Volunteer Movement. That movement began in answer to a challenge made at the end of the very first Christian conference for college students in 1886.

The organizers of CM2007 hope that next summer's conference will launch the next movement of students that will help to reach all the campuses of the world.

The conference has three primary themes:

Christ Magnified - Calling students to live a life surrendered to the Lordship of Christ and to exalt our magnificent God and Savior. Much of the conference will focus on helping participants see our holy God in a new and clear way.

Connected Movements - Connecting the hearts and lives of our students and staff as a global community of campus movements. We will learn from, encourage, and be challenged by others from different walks of life, cultures, languages and experiences.

Completing the Mission - Unleashing a new generation of spiritual movement builders to strengthen existing movements, and launch new movements on the unreached campuses of the world. Every participant will be challenged to help fulfill Jesus’ Great Commission in Matthew 28:18-20.

This past summer, Jeff created the website for English speakers. The website contains video, a prayer guide and other information about this historic conference. Check out the website at http://cm2007.net.

Jeff designed the website for the CM2007 confer-ence. The conference will take place between June 30 and July 5, 2007 in Busan, South Korea. This is

the first global student mission's conference.

Katy played an active part in trusting God to provide this second vehicle for our family. • Katy and Ryan are now sharing a room. One of their bedtime rituals is reading books with Daddy.• Ryan "spending time with Jesus." A couple of times Ryan has come into our bedroom when Jeff was having a quiet time and Jeff explained to Ryan that he was spending time with Jesus.
