"And the things you have heard me say in the presence of many witnesses entrust to reliable people who will also be qualified to teach others" -The Apostle Paul

The Curran Events | Spring 2016
DISCIPEMAKING:

During MLK weekend we joined with 1,000 students & CRU staff from California, Arizona and Hawaii in Anaheim...


...for the first ever ((RADIATE)) conference.  The theme of the conference was Discipleship: what does it mean to be a disciple of Jesus & to follow Him NO MATTER what?  And how can we be involved in discipling others?   We both LOVE to college students.  It is such a privilege and an honor to come alongside them, entrusting them with what we have learned about walking with Jesus with the eager expectation that they too would pass on to others!



Margee currently has 12 UC Davis women she is pouring into on a weekly basis.


Several of these women are also discipling other women- so exciting!  Daniel is personally mentoring 4 young Cru missionaries this spring, plus speaking at student meetings, hosting Bay Area Training Days, spoke at Korea Cru's Student Leadership Summit & San Jose Men's Retreat, and is mentoring a few Berkeley students on Friday's and via text messaging!


FIRST-YEAR-ON-THE-FIELD CONFERENCE: Daniel headed to UC Santa Barbara to direct our regions annual mid-year field training conference for 33 of our new CRU missionaries.

This year he devoted one of the days to learning cross-cultural and multi-ethnic ministry that gave everyone time to interview and share Christ with students of ethnicities different than their own.  It was a deep, thoughtful transformative experience.  It stirred something deep in his heart.  He stayed 2 days after to minister on campus to students he's befriended over the past 3 years.  It was the highlight of his spring thus far.


24-HOUR WOMEN'S RETREAT: Margee hosted a special 24 hour retreat for some of the women she is discipling at Davis. 
They cooked dinner together, made Valentines, listened to a podcast , spent time with the Lord and went for a hike in Briones! It was so much fun!


David & Kristen, exciting news!  (see below)

PLEASE PRAY FOR US:  

  • Please pray for us to continue to pursue Christ with all of our heart, soul and mind!
  • Pray for us to press into making disciples and reaching out to students of ethnicities different than our own...
  • Pray for spiritual revival to happen on campuses this spring, there is a lot of hope and prayer for this to happen.  Pray especially for God to move at San Jose State University.

“Come follow Me and I will make you fishers of men...”
-Jesus
