As I mentioned in my previous post on March 3, the UConn gang is down in Panama City Beach, Florida, for the Big Break, an evangelism conference par excellence. I want to offer a quick update from there.
I have spoken with a few of our students, and they're absolutely *loving* it. The conference is great, the housing is top-shelf, and they're getting tremendous opportunities to share Christ with college students there for spring break. Yes, there is much alcohol being consumed in PCB (not by our students, thankfully!), but that's what you get with spring break. Fortunately, our students are there, along with about 800 other Christians from across the country, bringing the light of Christ to what is a pretty dark place this time of year.
So please continue to pray for them as they learn and experience the joy of sharing their faith!

Hitting the Beach
In a few days, about 30 students involved with us will be heading to Panama City Beach, Florida, for our annual spring break trip. Normally we head to Florida, but the past few years we've done different things:
2006 - to New Orleans for Katrina relief work
2007 - to Vermont to help launch a Campus Crusade for Christ ministry at UVM
2008 - to Columbus, Ohio, to do some campus work on a variety of smaller schools in Ohio
And now, it's back to PCB for the conference we call, "Big Break". It'll be a great time of learning, growing, and experiencing personal evangelism on the sunny beaches and strip of this Gulf Coast town.
One of the most exciting parts of this trip is the number of students from reGeneration that are going: NINE. We were thrilled that so many would be able to make the trek down, and the Lord has provided all that they need to cover the cost.
Please, next week, remember to pray for these students and staff that will be driving down and back and seeking to make a difference in the lives of college students who flock to PCB from all across the country for their spring break.
