They say a picture is worth a thousand words. Well, rather than take up page after page with truly amazing stories of what God is doing at the U of I through us, we thought we'd share a few snaps of what's been going on. This has been probably the most encouraging the two of us have ever seen. It's so hard to condense it down to a short letter. Nevertheless, we hope you enjoy!

The #FreeCoffeeonCampus tent has been the biggest highlight of our Fall. We've met hundreds of people and seen some come to Illini Life events.

Our Friday night monochrome themed party was a great alternative to the typical college party scene.

Ashley, along with a couple others, put together another fun Friday night alternative: A Trivia Night in the Illini Union! It was so much fun.

Our worship bands had the privilege of playing at All Campus Worship this semester. Josh and Mark from our HF got to be in the band.

Each year at the Fall Retreat, we have an event we call The Game. Alan's team (along with a few members of our Home Fellowship) took the trophy!

A big portion of our Home Fellowship took a selfie at the end of the Fall Retreat. It makes us smile every time we see it.

Our Home Fellowship has been booming! Just this past week, we had more people who were new this year than we had as returning members. God is really gifting us with amazing people!

Thank you so much for your prayers and financial support. We have seen God do some truly fantastic things through us this year, and we wouldn't be here without your partnership. You are changing lives at the U of I with your selfless giving to the Kingdom and to us.
