For the past fives year I've led many I am Second groups and watched atheists, Buddhists, former Muslims, and people from different walks of life open their minds to the Bible, new believers turn around and share their faith boldly, reconciliation between fathers and daughters, people come to Christ, and so much more.
After spending a few years as the online trainer for I Am Second, I am now a catalyst for e3 USA in New York City. in 2012, God broke my heart for New York City, especially the Muslim community. Many that I've met feel alienated because of their counter-cultural lifestyle. They find comfort in community and religion, but none of them has any assurance of eternity with God, nor the comfort of a God who is personal and who was willing to die for them. Now, as a student at City College of New York, I have access not only to Muslims but people of many different faiths and backgrounds. Many of my classmates are from unreached people groups. That means my team and I are reaching out to those who not only don't have a relationship with Jesus, but who don't know anyone that could introduce them to Jesus. These people come from groups that are less that 2% Christian.
This year, we hope to start 25 Second Groups. It's a God-sized goal that will require a lot of prayer and hopefully not too many resources beyond what is already in the harvest!
Here are two ways you can get involved:
2) Through your resources. I live modestly, but having an income allows me to focus on my campus instead of finding work elsewhere. Would you partner with me and be part of what God is doing at CCNY?
All gifts are tax-deductible. If you have any questions about anything, please feel free to email me (shay@iamsecond.com), or even call me! (972.768.8829)
Thanks for your support in advance and for your prayers!
