Ancon 2010 – SWED Committee Tells All

Here’s a video that I made with the SWED (Social Work and Education) Committee recently, advertising Ancon (the SUEU’s Annual Conference).

This video was actually made to joke around with the fact that so often when people tell others about Ancon, they don’t actually say anything factual, they just use lots of adjectives to say how good it is. I hope you enjoy it.

O, and register for Ancon.

Tweets from SWED Faculty Weekend Away

SWEDOnce again I am going away this weekend. This time on an SUEU weekend away with the faculty that I lead. That is the amazing social work and education faculty. There are a few of us on the weekend that will be tweeting away, so check all of these tweets out in the nifty little box below.

This weekend we’re going to be learning about Justice, and these talks will be brought to us by Jeremy Smith, check out his blog here.

Hope you enjoy the Tweeting action!

Also, below the jump is a video I made telling people why they should come on the weekend. (o, and get ready for a stack of new videos here, I have a few more made that I need to upload.)

Ancon 2010 has Launched!

Ancon, the annual conference of the Sydney Uni Evangelical Union has launched. It is all happening and is ready to go.

Ancon 2010

Ancon is a 5 day conference form 28 June – 3rd July 2010, and the topic this year is Jesus: Revealing Reality.

A brand new website has launched today and you can view it at http://ancon.org.au/. It looks great, very minimalistic and sheek (is that the right word?). Only a few days ago I was chatting to Richard Glover about the splendour of the new design.

And not only is there a new website, but on that website is a pimping new video, one of the best Christian advertising videos that I have seen and easily the best video to come out of the SUEU for the past two years. You can view it below as well.

Ancon is going to be a great conference, and if you’re a Uni student at USyd (or not) interested in finding out more about Jesus, then you should register now!

I’ll see you there.

Top Ten Reasons To Come On SWED Weekend Away 2010

SWED

I’m the male faculty leader for the Social Work and Education Faculty within the SUEU as many of you will know. And we have our weekend away coming up in 2 weeks time! So I made this video to encourage people to come…

This video is just me speaking over a presentation and I do realise that I read from the presentation at times which is very naughty and not a very good thing to do in a PPT presentation. So I apologise for that.

God is Working at Sydney Uni!

SUEU O-Day

SUEU O-Day

I am so incredibly excited by what God is doing at Sydney Uni this year!

I’m a faculty leader within the SUEU (Sydney Uni Evangelical Union) of the Social Work and Education faculty. From the inside of a Christian group on campus, it has been great to see God working amongst students.

Here are a few really exciting statistics.

  • So far from O-Week, week 1 and week 2 we have 584 new contacts to add to the almost 700 students who were in small groups last year!
  • At public meetings in week 1 there were 690 people over 3 days, including a Thursday public meeting that had students sitting on the floor (Also including a performance from the 5SyncBoys)
  • In Social Work and Education small groups we had 86 people in week 1, and it appears that the number of students in small group is growing each week! So much so that we have had to create 2 extra small groups in our faculty!

At Sydney Uni, we have been praying for a revival of our campus. We want God to work amongst the students here and bring many into a relationship with him. I think that what has happened so far this year is the start of God’s work. And I will continue to pray that through his mercy he may save as many as possible.

“Bear in mind that our Lord’s patience means salvation”

2 Peter 3:15

5SyncBoys

5SyncBoys on Stairs

As part of the advertising campaign for the big three (public meetings, small groups, ancon) within the SUEU (Sydney Uni Evangelical Union), the 5SyncBoys performed their smash hit single, “Get Involved” from their album “The EU and U”. Below is a video recording of the performance. The 5SyncBoys were said to be happy with the performace and were quoted on their Facebook Page saying,

“[A shout out] to all our fans, without whom we would just be 5 extremely good-looking, well-dressed guys…”

The 5SyncBoys currently have no shows lined up but may have some exciting projects coming up in the future.

(Yes that is I in the cowboy hat)

SUEU Twitter List

Twitter listTwitter has a newish feature called lists. Twitter lists are best described as groups of people who are on Twitter.

Through Twitter lists, groups of people can find people together, and their tweets can all be seen on one timeline.

In Twitter you have the option to follow lists, now this doesn’t mean that you will see all of these tweets in your main timeline, but you will be able to see the timeline of the list that you are following easily.

If none of that makes sense, Mashable has a great “how to” about Twitter Lists here.

As a trial of Twitter lists, I have created an SUEU (Sydney Uni Evangelical Union) list. I have added all the people from the SUEU who I know are using Twitter. You can view it (and follow it) here. If you would like to be added to this list, or know somebody who should be added to the list, then please contact me or let me know in the comments.
