This week (January 2-7) college students from all over the midwest (the Great Plains International Region 0f Campus Crusade for Christ) traveled to Denver, Colorado for the Denver Christmas Conference. The Denver Christmas Conference (DCC) is hosted by the Adam's Mark Hotel in downtown Denver and, for one week, houses over 1,500 students and provides accomodations for the conference. This year we heard from great speakers like Bryan Loritts, Jaeson Ma, Carrie Walker, Dong Whan Kim, and many more. We worshipped with great musicians like Tifah, Foolish Things, and Building 429. And we were always entertained by our "fearless" (theme of the conference) emcee, Lee Watkins. For me, the highlights of the conference were meeting the entire team that I will be spending the next four months with in Thailand, growing more in my individual relationship with Christ, and reaching a new level of excitement in my faith. DCC 2007 was by far the most powerful conference I've attended, and my prayers are with all who attended with me, especially those from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. We cast an amazing vision for the campus, and God is moving already. Remain faithful and passionate in prayer and obedience, and nothing is impossible you guys. I am excited for Lincoln, Nebraska!

The Girls (Guys, why didn't we take a picture together?) - From left: Hannah Brauer (Cedarville College, OH), Annie Zellhoefer (Missouri), Brittany Lupardus (Missouri), Alisha Keim (Nebraska-Kearney alum).In Rodney and Alisha's room for a some good get-to-know-you time and a little Cranium, as if the ride to Denver wasn't fun enough. We instantly clicked, and were like best friends. I am so excited to spend the next four months with these guys!
