Lift Off! New Year - Day 02
"InterVarsity Christian Fellowship (IVCF) has been, in modern campus terminology, “derecognized” by California State University schools. Basically, they will no longer be a recognized campus organization on any of the 23 schools in that system. IVCF has been derecognized because they require their leaders to have Christian beliefs"...Please read this article.
As the article has pointed out, there are many issues included beyond just 'derecognition' with this discussion (Such as the possibility/reality that this may include even more campus fellowships). And of course, a host of questions that surround these heated topics begin to arise--many of which cannot be answered at this time. But what we can do is pray. Let's be vigilant and constant in the very fact that God hears our prayers and we can go to Him in this time of need. Pray for our campus fellowships to remain courageous and strong through this speed-bump. Pray that those involved would be wise with their decisions and reactions to exemplify Christ and His mission to us. Pray that the mission not only continues, but flourishes and grows despite through this difficulty.
Ephesians 5:15-17
Therefore be careful how you walk, not as unwise men but as wise, making the most of your time, because the days are evil. So then do not be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is.
