Games, food and the gospel

Our first outreach was a BBQ for international students. Everyone gathered together at the park on the Charles River. The night started off with fun games as the grills heated up and the food cooked. After eating the students got into groups of about 6 to answer life questions. "What's enjoyable about America?" "What's difficult about being here?" Questions along those lines. As the sun went down we began to shiver in the cold. Students we invited to the BBQ from Boston University's campus began to leave, but our students were determined that they would hear the gospel. Some of our students ran after people as they were leaving only to sit down with them and share the gospel. Hun Lihai! (That means "very intense" in Chinese, and I mean that in a good way.) As a result of their eager hearts, 4 international students became Christians that night!
Some of the same students from the BBQ came out to other events we held throughout the week. It was amazing!
