Building relationships with international students, with Scott Boyd | E9
On this episode of On The Move, host Leanne White is joined by Scott Boyd, director of Pittsburgh Region International Student Ministries (PRISM).
With over a million international students in the United States and 13,000 in Pittsburgh, PRISM sees this as a mission field that God has brought to them. By introducing these students to the gospel and giving them roots while they are in Pittsburgh, PRISM hopes to make an impact when they return to their home countries. While not a church planting ministry, PRISM's success lies in the transformation that takes place when these students go back home.
