Staff Prayer Request
Josh Wood
WVU senior
Answered Prayers
Usually the campus newsletter has personal stories about how our ministry is impacting students for Christ. I am glad we have those stories and rejoice in what God is doing at WVU. However, one of the reasons we have a fruitful ministry is because of other students who are faithful to our Savior. One of these students who have been an answer to prayer is Josh Wood. Josh came to WVU with a Christian background, although he didn’t start walking with God until Fall Retreat his freshman year. Since then he has helped lead freshman Bible Studies and gone on two stateside summer projects and one international missions trip to Venezuela. I’ve had the privilege of meeting with him for weekly discipleship, which has helped me and hopefully challenged him. This summer Josh helped lead a summer project as a staff/intern. I praise God for students like Josh. Please continue to pray for Josh as he graduates from WVU this December and seeks to go into full-time ministry.
