ISI Ministry Statistics
It is with a sense of praise to the Lord of the Harvest that I write this report updating you on the very positive ministry results ISI has experienced over the last two fiscal years in reaching a growing number of international students with the love and Gospel of Jesus Christ. I pray that you will find this information encouraging as you see how many students are being impacted by the Gospel through the ministry of ISI. Thank you again for partnering with us in reaching and discipling international students to become world-changers for Jesus Christ! Ministry Stats Ministry results for our 2008 Fiscal Year strategic planning cycle (measured from July 1, 2007 through June 30, 2008) reflect that 165 dedicated ISI team members, along with many volunteers, around the country have introduced over 47,953 international students on 538 campuses to ISI’s ministry. Over 2,300 affiliated and partnering churches, along with more than 19,100 volunteers and donors have helped make this possible. Passionate about clearly presenting the Gospel, ISI teams have cultivated relationships with over 19,000 students during this period, discipling at least 2,815 of them. We also praise the Lord for at least 485 internationals who have chosen to commit their lives to Christ. We rejoice that over 400 international students with changed lives have returned home this past year and now have the opportunity to reproduce their faith in the lives of friends, family, and co-workers in numerous countries. We feel great privilege and excitement in seeing the Kingdom of God strategically advancing all around the world.
