Short and Sweet in NY

After a whirlwind 3 month tour in 5 countries on 3 continents, we packed up the unis and returned to North America. Coming directly from Switzerland our first stop was Rochester NY for BASIC's (Brothers And Sisters In Christ) annual fall college conference.  

The theme for this conference was I Am Light, encouraging 600 students to shine brightly for Christ.  Coming right from 3 months lighting up the ripe harvest fields overseas, Dustin's message and performance tied right into this headline.  He encouraged students to let their lights shine using whatever gifts God has given them to make their lives count for eternity.

After our event we had many great conversations with college students who had been encouraged by Dustin's words.  One student with some mad football (soccer ball) handling skills shared that he is inspired to use his talent to share the Gospel like Dustin does through unicycling.  We were in NY for only 18 hours and our presentation was about 18 minutes but we pray the impact will be eternal.  Please pray for students to have the strength and support to walk boldly for God on their dark campuses! 

The contents of our lives going from here to there.
In 3 months of travel we were only charged for excess baggage once!

Dustin doing what he does best:
showing how God can use whatever you have to let your light shine!

Too high for the stage, Dustin got to scare the audience up close!
