On Monday mornings the CB auditorium has been packed with listeners coming to hear the extraordinary stories of this year's speakers. Mr. Bautista of the Yanomamo tribe, engaged his audience with tales of demon-possession and the spirit-world he experienced as a Shaman in his South American tribe. Yoel shared about the persecuted church in Africa and abuse he suffered for Christ. Gary Witherall spoke about his experiences over the past year since his missionary wife was murdered in Lebanon. Busy students will reward themselves by using any free time they can muster to attend one of SWOT's A-Frame events, which tend to have low attendance. At these events, missionaries and students have small-group discussions about their experiences abroad. The setting allows students to ask questions and gain a better understanding of other cultures, which helps them focus more on other people groups. But SWOT offers many other opportunities you should not miss. According to SWOT chairman Joey Easley, the team's goal this year is to expand the student body's vision of what God is doing in the world. SWOT doesn't expect everyone to become a missionary, but the team wants to keep students world-aware by showing them what is going on in other parts of the world. SWOT is acomplishing its goal. The team has brought in speakers who represent what God is doing in the world. They host events that help students become world-aware and provide an opportunity to praise God. Encourage and pray for SWOT, and find a SWOT event to attend. You will be blessed.
