GOALS: (1) To know 10 students that you can begin developing a significant relationship with; and (2) To get to a point where you can decide on some concrete goals for the future.
ASSUMPTIONS: (1) Prayer is the key to Contact Work; (2) Anything can be done with other Young Life leaders or Student Leaders; (3) Contact Work does not happen at club or campaigners – you need to go where they are.

Christ in you, the hope of glory.”
