Last week, US students spent just under 1 billion hours playing video games*! So, we have been challenging our student missionaries to bring Christ with them when they play.
This past month, we partnered with ministries from the UK, Philippines, and Australia to share the gospel with gamers.
For our part, we hosted a training online and challenged students to pick a buddy and a time to go out into their favorite game and start spiritual conversations with people they meet there.
About 30 people participated in our challenge, many sharing their faith for the first time!
Through all the partnerships that week around the world, about 700 people heard the gospel and at least 60 put their faith in Christ!
One new friend we’ve made is Isaac. Even through his challenges with epilepsy, Isaac was able serve in an entirely in-game church that had 17,000 active members. He is now a local youth pastor, but he continues to share his faith in video games and teach others to as well.
Please pray for Isaac, and the many others we are working with who are learning to be a light online and in-person!
