FIGHT ON! SC student Added to Christ

CONGRATS to Vivek Thomas, a grad student at USC getting his Masters in Electrical Engineering. Cy was inviting students to USControversial (the campus ministry's bible talk series last semester) when he met Vivek right outside of the religious center on campus. Vivek was on his way to a study group in the library and said he couldn't come. The bible talk began and minutes later Vivek came in to join the discussion. His study group cancelled because a student said he decided to go to the movies instead! Vivek remembered the invitation and the free food and made a decision that altered the very core of his life. Sharing before his baptism, he said "I may have known who Jesus was, but he didn't know who I was." He quested to correct that truth over the months of fall semester and was baptized on Sunday, January 20. Welcome!

Way to go Vivek! It was truly inspiring to hear you share your life and how fired up you were to declare Jesus Lord!
