Creating Destino Community on Campus

God is working on your campus.  We are committed to helping emerging leaders grow in their relationship with God and empowering students to take the truth of Jesus Christ to the campus, to the community, and to the world.

1. Pray God Works:We all need to pray.
Prayer is essential and the first step in being part of a Destino community.
- Mobilize others to join us in prayer
  
- Because we want to build on the right foundation.  
Read these verses:
1 Corinthians 3:10-15
Matthew 9:37,38
What is your story?2.  Tell your story
We have the opportunity to tell others our story of what God has done in and through us.  Your friends and fellow students need to see a passionate, dynamic Latino leader for Christ.  Jesus sends people out to share with others.    

We can be:

1.  Salt (Matthew 5:13)  
2.  Light (Matthew 5:14-16)
3.  Witness (Acts 1:8)

3.  Coaching - helping othersWe should each have Paul, Barnabus, and Timothy relationships.

This is our call to action in ministry.  It is important because the very last words Jesus spoke encouraged us to coach others.  (See Matthew 28:18-20)  
1.  Go  

2.  Make disciples (Teach, Train, Model, Mentor)

Also, we should all be involved in three coaching relationships:
1.  "Paul"  -  We all need mentors.  Develop relationships with someone who is more experienced in their walk with God.
2.  "Barnabas"  -  An equal.  A person in the same place you are in your walk.  We probably have more of this type of relationships.  
3.  "Timothy"  -  Invest in those younger in the faith.  Timothy was younger and mentored by Paul so, we can encourage, guide, and coach.

I planted, Apollos watered, but God causes the growth.  For we are Gods fellow workers.  (1Corinthians. 3:6-7).

God has a plan and can use us.  See Acts 1:8 where He sent them out in the power of the Holy Spirit.  The people following Christ went to others in this order:

1.  Jerusalem - They first went to their neighbors
2.  Judea - Then to those nearby
3.  Samaria - Then to the neglected people in their area
4.  Ends of the earth - the rest

How then, can they call on the one they have not believed in?  And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard?  And how can they hear without someone preaching  to them?  And how can they preach unless you are sent?

A Destino Community Transformed:  (Acts 2:42-47)

Can you imagine your campus if God started to work?  What would be true about your school if you had a Destino community like the community in the book of Acts?  These are things you would see:
1.  People would be devoted to the teaching of the word.
2.  People would be devoted to fellowship - being together
3.  They would be devoted to prayer
4.  There would be a sense of awe - God is working in the midst of us
5.  There would be wonders and miraculous signs - Students coming to know Christ
6.  There would be a community of people who know Christ meeting one another's spiritual, emotional,
     and physical needs.
