Many MANY dragons.

So the other day I gave you an update on our flyering efforts during orientation week.

Well the whole Uni Fellowship Committee have turned into Avatars with many MANY dragons. And those funny horses.

Today after our 7:30am committee meeting, we headed onto Sandy Bay campus – (first time since Monday) – to give out our info to any new student studying Arts. Arts at UTAS, and I suspect everywhere else, is large, so large in fact that they split Arts orientation days down the middle according to surname. So today as the floodgates opened and the students piled in the Committee and staff opened fire. Aaron reckons we got 90% of the students.

And they are back to do it tomorrow!

Please be praying that as students begin their year, they might be curious enough to come along to our weekly lunchtime meetings on ‘The Christian Worldview’ or our evening meetings for awesome community pump up! And please pray that they come back and become curious about Jesus and Salvation.

Around the place Luke Hansard was doing his awesomeness today as well. He’s been doing it all week, just saw him for the first time today. Good times. Pray for him too.

You should comment on Luke’s blog, he will be encouraged and maybe write another blog post.

Flyer (with dragons)

It’s orientation week at Uni this week – no, not O-week, but orientation week. That’s the one that doesn’t (yet) include alcohol in exorbitant proportions.

So, our aim this week is to attend all compulsory first year student sessions and hand out information for University Fellowship of Christians’ weekly and monthly gatherings.

Flyering I always found scary or confronting, but there is something different to flyering a campus to flyering town, and there is something different to flyering as a graduate than as a student. All of which make it much more enjoyable and pleasant.

What has really rocked is that so far in the two sessions we’ve been to, we’ve been able to direct students toward their lecture room or give them vital information. It’s really good, and I think the students appreciate it too.

Edit: Plus Mikey is a mighty Avatar of flyering. With a dragon. He flyers whilst riding the dragon. Really bold, and that helps heaps. He even goes to speak to lecturers to see if we can come in before the lecture begins to hand out flyers. Great stuff!
