International Christmas Outreach
“The play and the songs, they were amazing. Got chills like never before,” answered an international attendee in response to the question, “What did you enjoy most tonight?” Many different ISM (International Student Ministry) groups cooperated to host this wonderful event for international students and visiting scholars. In all, we had 229 total people attend from over 19 nations!
“I have been wanting a Bible in my language for ten years, ever since I was a student in [a Western country],” explained an East Asian man who was sitting with us at our table at the ISM Christmas event. He smiled thankfully as he eagerly accepted a bilingual Bible from us in his native language and English. “I tried to get a book like this years ago, but couldn’t find one,” he shared. Many internationals received God's Word in their native languages for the very first time that night.
