CCC Christmas Conference
Shelly Gillespie, University of Alaska Campus Crusade for Christ Advisor
For me, the highlight of the 2001 Connection Conference was being able to spend quality time with our students as God worked in their hearts and mine through the teaching we received daily. Together we laughed, worshiped the Lord, and prayed for one another - seeing major answers to prayer even before the conference drew to a close. I also was deeply encouraged through conversations had with CRU staff individuals. Through time spent with them, both in prayer and conversation, I am coming back to the University of Alaska Anchorage with a larger vision of what God may wish to do through our students to reach our campus more effectively and to help start other college ministries across the state. I definitely will plan on attending the conference next year, and look forward to seeing many more Faculty Advisors there.
