Elsewhere, officials at InterVarsity Christian Fellowship are gearing up for
Urbana two-thousand. More than 19-thosuand young people are expected participate
in the event, scheduled for December 27th at the University of Illinois at
Urbana-Champaign. Urbana’s Director Barney Ford explains. “Urbana is a student
missions conference. We’re about student missions mobilization. We would like to
think that Urbana is certainly one of the best, if not the best way for a person of
University student age to find out about what God’s doing in the world and how they
can participate in that.” Ford says it’s not too early to register for the conference.” Our
brochures are out and we’d love for people to begin to pray and think about coming.
The best way to get information is the Urbana web site, or people can write or email
us at: [email protected].” The theme of this year’s conference is worshiping Christ.
