prayer room Latest report from Kenya feeding project 07/02/09

.

As of July 1st there are structural changes at the International Mission Board. These 2 quotes from Ed Cox of IMB may help you understand.

"As we begin this month, I especially encourage you to be praying for the IMB as we bridge into a new epoch. As of today, July 1, we are now organized by global affinity groups rather than by the former geographical regions. (Affinity groups are large groupings of related peoples that share similar origins and cultures.) Focusing strategy through these affinity groups, rather than through the geographical regions, gives missionaries a more complete picture of the people they are working to reach as well as the freedom to pursue the lost regardless of their location." and "This move to an affinity group structure has necessitated a myriad of other related changes throughout our organization, both stateside and overseas. Please pause today and pray for our personnel as they transition to new administrative structures, leadership relationships and ministry possibilities. Ask God to speak into missionary hearts, revealing His vision for reaching the massive number of people groups who have yet to hear or respond to the Good News of Jesus Christ."

Until this settles out some so I understand it the prayer list for the various countries will be suspended.

REMINDERS that remain on opening page

.

Each year student.org's use is monitored by an independent group. Here are the figures for the year ending September 15, 2008

Visits for the year - 161,636 (down from 213,254 last year, but up from 145,273 for 2006)
College Directory was accessed - surprisingly 122,115 up from 120,543 last year. I had anticipated both visits to the site and to the directory to be down since the NCM site was operative.

I had told some people that I planned to remove the directory of colleges and collegiate ministers the first of 2008 since the NCM site was taking over that function. I just checked the NCM site today and found that 22 of the state or province pages have no information on them. For that reason I will continue listing the information under the colleges heading in the menu bar above until you have available a more complete source for that information. 01/02/08
off site I would like to encourage each of you to view the video of religious, cultural, and political leaders from around the world engaging in a forum titled, "Rules for a Global Neighborhood in a Multicultural World". The link is http://tinyurl.com/2x5kxd 01/26/07

To make it easier for you to find it by clicking on the link to the left. You will need to constantly click on the frames to make them advance to the next piece of information. 11/29/06
Discipleship 101 The revised Discipleship 101 materials by Gene Parr are now online and will permanently reside in the File Cabinets under "Rooms" in the menu bar above. You are free to copy these materials and alter them to fit the needs of your groups. 08/14/06

file cabinets I have just received permission to reprint an article by Judith Kallos (http://www.OnlineNetiquette.com) concerning copyright limitations. It is the clearest succinct article I have found and is certainly worth your time to read. It will remain in the file cabinets for your future reference when dealing with others on this topic. 11/24/04

Campus minister's office A new section is being started in the campus minister's office called helps from the past. For some of you it will be a major help. For others you will quickly see it is really not for you. Check it out and you decide. Maybe you know some struggling volunteer or church college minister that it will help. 07/15/04
International office You have worked with a particular International student for a long time. Now they are returning to their country. What better way to show your continuing care than to have a missionary contact them when they get home. IMB makes it really easy. Just send the information on how the person can be contacted to Mike Lopez mlopez-at-imb.org (Substitute @ for the -at-). He will handle it from there. 07/12/04

Spammers occasionally fake student.org email addresses. At present the only legitimate email address from The "Cyber" Student Center will have a return address of houston-at-student.org (Substitute @ for the -at-) and will include in the first line your first name or the nick name you gave to The "Cyber" Student Center. 1/20/04
Legal office Some have questioned recently whether contact information listed on this site is considered public information for use in mass contacts of campus ministers. I believe the detailed answer to this is clearly stated in the legal office, but the short answer is NO! 07/23/03
