Fantastic time in CU Campus

It was really an exciting and wonderful moment to explore how our church first campus ministry to serve the CU students. The trip for the history of CU campus ministry was guided by CU alumni Calvin To and together with seven young brothers and sisters. We visited different places and buildings where our Christians held activities the past. To me, it is a good reminder to recall our memory on how our campus brothers and sisters fought and got together in the old days.

The trip was started to sightsee some of the student halls and libraries. For example, we went to the Bethlehem hall and found that it was the common venue our brothers and sisters met and held our God worship activities. After a few minute walk, a Hanging Garden(空中花園) was in front of our eyes. It was a convenient place our Christians love to take rest .Sometimes they would climb on the roof and looked at the shining stars at night.

What a more, we saw a UC water tower (聯合水塔) situated on the hill. In the past, it was used for pumping water. Apart from the water tower, we also took some photos for the Bethlehem hall(伯利恆宿舍) where students studied Bible at the campus in the early years.

Walking along the Avenue of hundreds of 10 thousands(百萬大道) for about 20 minutes, we had our sharing faith session. Although eight brothers and sisters had been refused by many CU students, three CU students left their telephone numbers and names for further follow-up. It was a wonderful time to fight with brothers and sisters and spread the God’s message to others! Later, we tried one of the most famous CU snacks ----- creamy soda pie. It was really yummy!

Last but not least, we visited the College Chapel which is a beautiful and awesome building in the campus. Some of our brothers and sisters held their weddings in this chapel. With the beautiful scenery of Weiyuan Lake (未園湖), we studied Bible with a friend, Tommy until night.
The trip for finding the history of CU campus indeed helped us understand more our campus ministry history and know our campus fighters’ joy and tears. I hope every campus ministry can know well their campus ministry history and make dream in the campus in 2009! I wish every campus student success in academics and religion life in 2009.
