This is chapter two, verse eight.

He says, so being affectionately desirous of you, we are ready to share with you not only the gospel of God, but also our very selves.

And that is, you know, we have missionaries on our campus.

They're focused missionaries.

It stands for Fellowship of Catholic University Students.

And

That is how they live.

It is incredible.

They not only run Bible studies, they don't just do like discipleship.

They don't just put on events.

They truly get into the lives of our college students and they just, yeah, they share themselves.

They don't just share the gospel.

They share their very lives.

and share their very selves.

And this is the way in which every single missionary has to live.

And the fact that if you're a baptized Christian, that means you're a missionary.

You're a missionary disciple.

And we are called to follow Jesus and then to bring as many people to him as we possibly can, which means that the way we do that is the way that St.

Paul describes how he was among the Thessalonians.

Not just share the gospel of God, not just share the teaching, but also to share our very lives.
