“I can’t tell you how much I look forward to our ‘God Space’ group. It gives me something to look forward to during the week and keeps me accountable in so many ways. I love that I can be real and receive godly advice from these  women.” ~ Sidney  (Italy)

Introducing Tanya to Jesus on Facebook (Guest Post)


About 3 years ago I met Tanya through Facebook and she ended up getting involved with our ministry, built friendships with other students, went to bible studies and heard the gospel several times but wasn’t ready to trust Jesus with her life. A few months later, while chatting on Facebook I asked her if she was ready to submit her life to Christ. Continue reading “Introducing Tanya to Jesus on Facebook (Guest Post)”
