Tabling!!!

Hello, friends! 

Yesterday, Megan drove to Hasting, NE (about 2.5 hours away) to do some tabling with Zack, a student leader at the InterVarsity group there. All said and done, she said it was a great time! Zack is an RA (Residential Advisor) so he knew everyone who came by. There were some folk who were really excited about joining the Bible study and it seems like there's some real momentum there! 

There are many reasons I love my wife, but one of them is how welcoming she is to people. Tabling is a great example of that. Megan knows exactly how to make people feel welcomed and engaged, with just a short conversation. She's also a great trainer and developer, so I'm sure that Zack learned a thing or two about how to table well. 

During the start of the school year, tabling is one of the most common and best ways to meet students on campus. I love tabling because of the random encounters that lead to lifelong friendships and even life change. The prospect of a free cup or some candy may be all that's needed for a student to feel welcomed into a community and can even be the first step towards a student following Jesus! 

Friends, right now, tabling is happening all over the Central Region. Staff like Megan and students like Zack are meeting students, new and old, in random, chance encounters on campus. Would you please pray with me that these encounters would lead to something more? Pray that students tabling would be bold in their invitations and grow in love for strangers they may not know. Pray that students walking by would have their curiosity stoked. Pray that this would be the first step towards a great school year for these InterVarsity chapters. 

Have an excellent day!
