Ryerson University

Evangelist Jessica Barnett serves with Power to Change on the campus of Ryerson University in Toronto. She recently wrote with an update…

Dear Milliken Church Family, Two weeks ago I met a student named Caroline. She comes from a Catholic background and use to practice her faith until her views and beliefs were influenced by her professors and peers here at the university. She said, “I think there is a God, but I’ve been so caught up in my life, I’ve kind of forgot about Him.” I shared words about how God wants to have a relationship with her. She told me that she had never heard this before, but wanted to know more. We shared more of the Gospel and how she could make the decision at that moment. Please pray for Caroline. She is thinking about what we shared!

Also this past month a student named Ryan accepted Christ when he heard the Gospel. We rejoice and give thanks that God continues to call people to Himself here at Ryerson. My discipleship group studies will officially end this week as another semester comes to a close. During the past semester, our group studied the topics of sin, confession, Scripture, the Gospel, and assurance.

Give thanks with us that God continues to call people to Himself. And pray that each one’s relationship with God will grow deeper and deeper. Thank you for your prayers and support!
