Prayer for USA

This past meeting we worshiped together and took some time to pray for our country. Of course, at the time the polls were still open and it seemed like the whole world was focused on election coverage. It was really good to pray and let God speak to our hearts about it and also to share with each other what we felt God was saying.

Brian Weaver was also able to join us... he's gone to Tanzania for a short trip. Please pray for him and what God is preparing for Europe, which is currently his focus.

Media in Europe

This week, Sorin Petan shared his perspective on what is happening in European Christian media, informing us of some of the challenges and opportunities.  He is a student at the School of Communication & the Arts, and is currently working with ReelGood television.  We'll be bringing more people in to share about their mission field and different ways to impact the world throughout the year, and we'll post who is speaking on the blog in advance.

Here are some of the links he showed us about how the Internet is playing a part in Christian media in Europe.

A Fantastic Kick-Off!

What a great time we had yesterday at the RMLA dinner!  It was definitely a good kick-off event for the year.

For those of you who weren't there, we held it in the Fountain View Room, which was packed by the time Dr. Clarke began to speak... in fact, there were still people getting food and coming in through the entire hour.  Then David and Peter shared on the vision for this year.  Fabulous stuff... we estimate somewhere between 50-60 people came.  It really seemed like a lot of people just enjoyed being there and mingling. 

Again, thank you, Michelle and everyone who served! 

Our weekly meetings will be at the same time, but the location has changed to the Fountain View Room.  Most weeks we'll be strategically praying for a certain "mission field" and hearing from someone who has personal experience in that field.  This semester we will also be working on getting a representative from each school for both this year and next year.  If you're interested please email us at

World evangelization in our generation.

Introduction Dinner

Introduction Dinner:
September 23rd, 5-6pm
Fountain View Room

RMLA is throwing an "Introduction" Dinner to introduce itself to the school. There's going to be tons of totally free food (home-cooked!). We will simply introduce what RMLA is and why we think it's a good idea. I think Dr. Clifton Clark will be sharing, although that's not confirmed. We'll let you know.

Bring yourself and anyone you think might be interested... in food or missions! All schools invited.
