More than forty students responded to Pastor Vandeon Griffin's call to commit their lives to Jesus Christ at the end of Thursday morning's Week in Spiritual Emphasis (WISE) meeting; 17 of them were baptised Sabbath morning, September 22.  "This past Sabbath's baptisms prove that there's a movement of youth at CUC and across the world who aren't satisfied with standing on the spiritual sidelines," said Janice De-Whyte, associate chaplain. 

Pastor Vandeon Griffin, who is presently the Youth Director of the South Central Conference, presented a week-long series of talks with the theme, The Fight of Your Life.  The class schedule was adjusted to allow for a daily morning service at 11 am in the College Heights SDA Church and a meeting every evening at 8:30 pm in the Administration Building Chapel.

"During my time here at CUC I have had the opportunity to experience six separate Weeks in Spiritual Emphasis," said CUC Chaplain Paul Antunes.  "This year, however, it was my honour to witness a spiritual wave of students rededicating their lives to Jesus Christ in an unprecedented way.  The Holy Spirit's presence is deeply being felt throughout our Campus and what happened at WISE is just a foretaste of where God is leading this campus."
