ISI National President Dr. Doug Shaw's report to volunteers 2015

2:8-9 (NLT) "But I am like an olive tree, thriving in the house of God. I will always trust in God's unfailing love. I will praise you forever, O God, for what you have done. I will trust in your good name in the presence of your faithful people."

This paints a very vivid picture for me because at ISI we are THRIVING in fruitfulness. We are TRUSTING God in our challenges. We are TESTIFYING in praise for His faithfulness.

• Over the last academic year (June 1, 2013-uly 31, 2014),

• introduced 65,355 international students to the ministry of ISI,
  • cultivated relationships with 24,168 students,
  • discipled 4,324 students,
  • an estimated 9,348 international students have made decisions for Christ, and
  • 865 have become reproducers of their faith both in the US and overseas!

Now, here is a exciting observation from these statistics: If you consider the number of decisions for Christ (9,348) and divide that by the number of days and hours in a year, it translates to 25 decisions per day. And considering 24 hours per day, that means ...

A New Soul Every Hour!

That is so exciting!  The angels in heaven are having a party every hour on the hour!


You, *|FNAME|* can be a part of the great work that God is doing through ISI in Santa Cruz and around the world.
