I just thought you might want to hear about this. David Nasser mentioned it at the beginning of his last message of Spiritual Emphasis Week on Friday:
Liberty students were challenged during Spiritual Emphasis Week to give to a missions cause -- and now three Ethiopian children’s lives will be changed forever.

Evangelist David Nasser encouraged students at Campus Church service Wednesday night to give a special offering. He called it the "jeans" offering because he encouraged them to give the same amount as their jeans cost.

I think the final number was somewhere around $95k. That is amazing for a group of college students. Hopefully, this ends a little of the stereotype that college students don't give liberally.
