Internationals at Northlake
ISI OtherThere are over 900 international students each at two of the community colleges in the area. At one campus over half are from the little reached country of Nepal. We don’t have anyone working there? Why? Without the manpower and the difficulty in reaching community colleges because of their commuter nature, we have not been able to plant a team in the community colleges. Yet we have continued to pray.
With much prayer, God moves in special ways. Just recently, there has been movement in several colleges and churches nearby. One notable example is at Northlake College. They have over 900 international students. The international student office recently approached ISI to help start a program for international students, to help them to adjust and learn about our culture. At the same time, Irving Bible Church, just around the corner from Northlake indicated interest in ministering to international students with ISI as the go between and coach. It seems like a match made in heaven… literally. This ministry opportunity is still in its infant stages, but there is great potential. Please pray that God may work out the details to make all this happen.
