What a week this has been…so much sadness over the events at Virginia Tech on Monday and yet hope in how the Lord can and is using the stories of those affected by this tragedy. Three of the students that died on Monday were involved in Campus Crusade.
Molly Donohue is the student at Virginia Tech who first discovered the two bodies at Ambler Johnston Hall. She is a freshman and involved in a Campus Crusade Bible Study. Her video interview with ABC is online here: http://abcnews.go.com/Video/playerIndex?id=3056249
More of Molly’s story is online on Campus Crusade for Christ’s Campus Ministry Web Site: http://campuscrusadeforchrist.com/virginiatech/mollys-story/
Lauren McCain was also involved in a Campus Crusade Bible Study and loved reaching out to international students. She was Molly’s friend. Lauren died at Norris Hall. Her father recently spoke to the press. This is powerful: Fox News Video Clip
(If you have trouble with the Fox Video Clip, you can go to FoxNews.com and search for “a father’s pain” in video in Studio B. It will play from the Fox website.)
The Campus Crusade staff team at Virginia Tech is ministering to many students in the midst of their own grief. This is a very neat story of how a staff member had the opportunity to share Christ with Reema (one of the victims) about 3 weeks ago: http://campuscrusadeforchrist.com/virginiatech/sharing-story/
www.GobbleTalk.com is Campus Crusade’s evangelistic website for Hokie students. In the past few days, Over 50 students have indicated they placed their faith in Christ through this website since the tragedy!!
Even in the midst of terrible tragedy and sadness, the Lord is doing some incredible things!
