SMC- Student Thoughts

Friends,

Wanted to share with you some thoughts from students about SMC, our annual winter conference.

I was extremely encouraged by the number of students who were present at SMC from all over the Midwest, and how they had an intense growing passion to gain more knowledge about Jesus and how to grow closer to to Him. A lesson that is still striving with me is from the last night we were there. The speaker spoke on the status of missions and I was blown away by a story he told that he once received a phone call saying that a mission to Morocco was being cancelled because 5 students could not be found with interest to go serve over there. My heart breaks more and more now as I wait to graduate so that I can be one that goes to those nations for Christ!- Tyler, senior Alpha Tau Omega


SMC was a weekend that has forever changed my life. Speaker Sean Vallendorf taught me about being a man who is pursuing Christ. I was convicted and challenged; and loved it! My life will never be the same after attending this awesome conference.- Doug, junior Alpha Gamma Rho

"SMC came at the perfect time to remind me to keep running for Christ. Life can get really overwhelming and distracting, but the inspirational speakers and participants were just what I needed to head into the new year with an eternal perspective in mind. It was also a great excuse for a road trip and a wonderful chance to get in a lot of girl time with my sorority sisters!"- Lauren, sophomore Alpha Xi Delta


God continues to do amazing things. We're excited to see what He does next!

Thanks so much for your prayers and support!
