The World at UT Dallas !
 
The mission of International students Inc. is driven by Christ’s love for all nations. This world at an American Campus will always include You, Me and the International students.
                               This is a ministry news of Vinay Patras.
As it happens...
April/May 2009
After His resurrection and before He ascended into heaven Jesus said, “Go into all the world and preach the good news to all creation.” (Mark 16:15).  We fulfill this command together as a family of believers.  I can take the good news to international students because you send me as a missionary.  Together we preach the good news to people from all nations. Right here at the UT Dallas campus there are more than 2,000 international students from over 90 countries. It is an opportunity that we cannot miss in spreading the good news of salvation to all peoples.
Today, I want to express my gratitude to you for understanding this opportunity and partnering with me in taking the good news to students from around the world. We cannot do this ministry without you.  Already during this year, international students from DFW and Texas have put their faith in our Lord Jesus Christ in the past couple of months. You had a share in the ministry to these students because of your partnership with us. Ministry al lover the States continues to see much fruit. Thank you.
Just a reminder—you can mail/give online your monthly gift to International Student’s Inc. for missions budget for Vinay Patras.
