On campus

I'm spending the balance of my morning here on campus. I'm back at the Cafeteria, just hanging out and working. I spent some time praying (with my eyes open), journaling, reading, and fielding emails and calls. I got to talk to one guy today, just a short conversation, but a start. I saw my friend Reinhardt (public safety), and I'm about to visit my friends in facilities management. This campus is more and more on my heart and mind. I spent several hours in focused prayer yesterday afternoon. I'm looking for an opportunity to establish CONTACT on campus here.

CONTACT is an initiative that we're implementing this summer of CONTACTing 1500 people from the surrounding community. I've learned from experience that places like this require an attractional approach (meaning getting them to come to us), because otherwise we get kicked out for proselytizing. I'm thinking of a table with a banner inviting people to participate in the survey. I'm thinking that a drawing for a $50.00 gas card would help grease the wheel. What do you think? Any suggestions?
