In their own words

We wanted you to get to hear directly from our students at SFA about their experience at The Winter Conference this year. It is so amazing to see how incredibly personal our God is- that he speaks so directly to each of our hearts just how we need it. I love to see how the Lord worked- so read on!

"My week at TWC was about making sure my own heart was in check. Christ has given me a huge passion to do ministry one day. TWC reminded me that I need to Love Christ more than my dream of doing ministry. Christ also showed me some practical ways to prepare my heart for my future of doing ministry. It was an amazing week and I am so glad that I went!"- Deena, junior

"Before I went to TWC, I was having a hard time, such a hard time I wasn't going to go. My mom convinced me to go, and I did. I'm very glad I went because if I didn't, then I would have missed out on my blessings. By going I experienced a closer walk with God, and by having that quiet time with God and hearing the speakers sermons; I learned that my problems are not meant to tear me down, but to make me stronger."- Leia, freshman

"Being at TWC helped me understand that there are other people who are going through or have gone through some of the same things that I am dealing with in my own walk, and its okay to ask for help. It also helped me figure out that my next step is to start over by ending my addiction and clinging solely to Him." -Jodi, senior

"Winter Conference was a great time for me to reunite with some of my friends from Crusade Summer Project. Being there helped me to realize how important community is in the life of believers and how much I need that community at school. I heard so much truth from the Bible through new perspectives from our speakers - it was challenging, but so refreshing!"- Margaret, senior

We are so thankful that God is alive and at work in the lives of students, and ours too. Hope you enjoyed hearing from them!


Blessings, Vince and Autumn
