CEC to challenge college students to share the Gospel

January 16, 2024

By Brian Blackwell, Baptist Message staff writer

PINEVILLE, La. (LBM) – Louisiana Baptist collegiate ministry leaders hope to equip students to intentionally share the Gospel in daily life during the upcoming Collegiate Evangelism Conference, set for Feb. 2-3 in Louisiana Chris­tian University’s Guinn Auditorium, Pineville.

They said their goal is to prepare participants to establish personal out­reach as a lifestyle habit.

CEC will feature three speakers: Chad Gilbert, First Baptist Church, New Orleans, Jordy McKaskle, Calvary Bap­tist Church, Alexandria, and George Lee, director, Grambling State Univer­sity Baptist Collegiate Ministry. The worship team from Istrouma Baptist Church, Baton Rouge, will lead music.

Students also will have a chance to at­tend breakout sessions that center around the conference theme and learn about missions and ministry opportunities representatives of Loui­siana BCM GOLA Mis­sions, the International Mission Board and New Orleans Baptist Theo­logical Seminary.

Chad McClurg, direc­tor of the Baptist Col­legiate Ministry with the University of Louisiana at Monroe, told the Baptist Message that the conference will be an opportunity for students from Louisiana Baptist church college ministries to fellowship at this an­nual meeting for college students.

“CEC gives students from across the state to gather together to learn, grow, and challenge each other to live missionary on their college cam­puses.”

Registration for CEC begins Feb. 2, 5 p.m., with a 7 p.m. start for the main session. The conference concludes at 5 p.m., Feb. 3.
