There are only two types of people in the world: those who like statistics and those who don’t. If you belong to the second category, this post is probably not for you…
However, if you like statistics, here’s what we gathered during this last schoolyear:
Number of students personally approached by staff with the gospel: 4572 (only one-on-one, personal conversations)
Approached by staff by week: 10.34 (as stated above, this is only one-on-one approaches, and also, if I took my disciple with me and he shared the gospel, that does not count here.)
Evangelistic discussions: 2802 (it means that we can have a spiritual conversation with more than half of the students that we approach)
Student evangelistic descussions: 2952 (So our students shared the gospel with more people personally than we as staff did. This is a good sign in a movement, because it means that more and more is done by “the followers” and not the leaders.)
Decisions with staff: 48 (1.7% of the conversations) – This means that altough Hungarian students love to talk about spiritual things, it is extremely hard for them to make a decision to follow Christ.
Decisions with students: 78 (2.6% of the conversations) – This shows that our students – who live among other students – can be better testimonies to their non-Christian friends and classmates. Statistically speaking, 52% better…
Gospel shared at evangelistic events: 1924 (this many students heard the Good News at a talk or other event from us)
Decisions at event: 48 (2,5%) (it might show that events are more effective, but at the same time it is easier just to put an X on a response card than to commit your life when someone personally knows about your journey – but this is just my opinion:)
Entering follow-up: 136 (this many new believers started to meet with us to hear about the basics of walking with God like prayer, Bible study or going to church)
Received gospel literature: 6996 (this many students recieved the gospel in a written form from us)
Other evangelistic impact: 13492 (for example people reading the gospel on our website)
Total evangelistic impact of CCC Hungary this school-year: 45989
