First Pres’ Orlando Fellow, Meredith Batson, is on fire for Jesus – and college students! Transformed as a new Christian two years ago, Meredith tells everyone she meets about His saving grace. In her words, “I just can’t shut up about Jesus!” Meredith’s mentor encouraged her to go into ministry, and the fruit of her service is unmistakable!
In only seven months as a Fellows and Young Life intern, Meredith has become a force at Rollins College. She’s a prayer warrior, mentor and trusted friend to over 50 students. To get things rolling, Meredith found Rollins girls on Instagram who mentioned faith or listed Bible verses in their bios. She messaged each one with a personal invitation to meet up and become a part of a consistent faith community. That’s all it took.
Last August, Meredith and Lauren connected through Instagram, which opened the door to twenty other girls who now meet regularly. Having an intentional presence on campus allows Meredith to meet so many others. Regardless of their background, Meredith prioritizes genuine friendship and shares the Gospel along the way.
Lyla, a new friend of Meredith’s, had never heard the name of Jesus in her life. Meredith shared the Gospel with Lyla in a sweet moment of Truth that led Lyla to participate regularly in Meredith’s bible study. Meredith’s Missional Living is transforming lives and bringing remarkable change to the Rollins campus. Keep up the awesome, Kingdom-work, Meredith!
Meredith has a need for adult volunteers, new Bibles for students, and your prayers.
