‘God moving big’ across Arkansas campus

“God has been moving big here this semester and it has been amazing to see and be a part of,” said Hayden Leonard, a junior Industrial Engineering and Operations Analytics major at the University of Arkansas.

Leonard is an intern for the college ministry at First Baptist Church Fayetteville, and he serves as president of the Baptist Collegiate Ministry at UA.

Arkansas Baptist State Convention Baptist Collegiate Ministry Specialist Lynn Loyd said, “The only way I know to say it is the way one of our students said it. Is that there is a ‘good vibe’ with our group and on our campus.”

There have been several experiences this semester where Leonard said he has seen God moving on and around the university. A few of those instances include a visit from the Gideons, the Unite US gathering and Discipleship Now at Pea Ridge First Baptist Church, where roughly 50 students serve.
