(see video below) The Tejas 2008 Spring Break retreat was wonderful. In many ways it was our best yet. With attendance around 120, the students were treated to great hospitality, lots of fun activities, thought-provoking drama presentations, an engaging speaker who clearly presented the gospel, and small groups to process the message and build a sense of community.

We were excited that 12 students indicated they trusted Christ at the retreat, 30 indicated they wanted to learn more about Jesus, and 24 wanted to join a Bible study. Praise God for what He did during that weekend, and thank you to everyone who prayed for the Spirit to be present. He obviously was!

Here is what one student had to say: “I also enjoyed the music during the service, which is inspired and joyful. During the group discussion, we had explored what is about Christian and Jesus and also got many different views about religion and different interpretation about god. Although I am not a Christian, this is very helpful to let me understand about different religion and what the Christian see about relationship with god.” Pray for this student to continue pursuing God in his life.
