Hello hello!! So here is just a little life update:
I graduated from the University of Arkansas in May and now the Lord has given me the amazing opportunity to be apart of School of Ministry through Cross Church this year! The School of Ministry is a residency program through Cross Church where they equip, teach, and build us to be better ministers for the gospel. While in this program, I will learn hands-on the ends and outs of working in a church full-time, take seminary classes, and be apart of the Student Ministry team at the Fayetteville Campus. Along with this, we have the chance to go share the gospel across the world! I will be going on 3 mission trips over the course of this year! One to the Dominican Republic and two state side trips as well to share the good news. I am so excited for this season that the Lord has me in!
This year will be challenging, exciting, full of growth, and better equip me for ministry throughout my life even after this year. I would greatly appreciate support during this year. First and most importantly, in prayer! I hope that you can join me in praying for the students my team reaches daily, in advance for the people we will reach on our mission trips, and for the Lord to take Fayetteville by storm with His good news! Another way to help support me this year is financially. If you also feel led to join me in support financially, I would greatly appreciate the support! That will go towards the mission trips I will take throughout the year and towards the courses I will be taking as well. Thank you so much in advance for whichever way you feel led by the Lord to support me this year.
I will be updating y'all throughout the year on my journey and the work God is doing this year!
With Love,

hey there!! it's November now, holy cow where did the time go?!
I wanted to provide a bit of an update as some exciting things are about to happen!
As a School of Ministry class we just came back from Washington D.C, where we were able to visit one of Cross Church's church plants there and learn about the country that we are serving in.
I am serving in the Student Ministry at Cross Church Fayetteville and wow has this season been incredible! We held a Dodgeball tournament at the end of September and saw over 30 professions of faith and over 600 students there hearing the gospel. We've seen students baptized continually and the Lord allowed me to walk through salvation with a girl I randomly met one day at a lunch at Fayetteville High School back in April a couple weeks ago and saw her get baptized. I think that has been one of my highlights of the semester so far. That moment was so cool to see how the Lord just works so strategically even when we don't see it happening.
I will be going on a mission trip to the Dominican Republic in the next week! We will be gone November 11-17! This is my first international mission trip so I am super excited to see what the Lord has in store for us when we arrive! We will be doing some construction and evangelism while there. I would love if you could join me in prayer for the team, the people we will reach, and for the Lord to move in their lives and ours while we are there.
CSF is also having a Girls Night on November 12th, I won't be there due to being on the mission trip but please pray for this night! Its our first girls event for the year and its like a mini conference! There will be teaching, a panel, worship, and break out sessions with time to reflect and discuss. We are praying for community to be built between our girls and for this to propel our girls to reach out to others, so feel free to join us in this!
So far this journey has been more than I could've imagined, please join me in praying for CSF students, the staff, and the School of Ministry class. I am so thankful the Lord has placed me here for the year and I pray that as this year goes on He grows and pushes me to step out of my comfort zone more and more. If you feel led to support me during this year, I can never express how thankful I am whether financially or prayerfully, THANK YOU!!
With Joy,
Hannah Corley
