We're excited to announce that this month will include another "first" for the Internet Campus. We will be broadcasting baptisms live on Sunday, May 18. This will be for those from McLean Bible Church and Frontline.

If you are a believer in Jesus Christ, have not been baptized and can make it to McLean Bible Church at 6:30 PM EST Sunday, May 18, we invite and encourage you to come get baptized! We will stream the baptisms live online, allowing family and friends from all over the world to witness your profession of faith. You will need to complete a Baptism class, which can be administered online via the Internet Campus (contact bbuckner@mcleanbible.org).

Even if you are not getting baptized, we still encourage you to log onto the Frontline Internet Campus to take part in the work God is doing in the lives of those who will be.

Finding a great segway into a conversation about your faith can be tough. We've got two different ways to hopefully increase your opportunities to "give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have." -1 Peter 3:15.

First, we've printed thousands of Internet Campus cards to hand out in order to encourage your friends, family and coworkers to check us out online. We'd love to offer some of them to you wherever you are. These can be picked up in the main lobby of the McLean Bible Church Tysons Campus, or can be mailed to you if you live outside of the DC area. If you'd like them to be mailed to you, just shoot me an email with your physical address, how many cards you'd like and whether you attend McLean Bible Church or Frontline.

As a community, we've been picking up a lot of steam in the past three months, with four online outreaches now under our belt. So far we've partnered with Notasermon.org to minister to secular Washingtonians, XXXChurch.com to confront the dangers of internet pornography and The Gathering to reach out to college students. We've also brought MBC and Frontline together for our online Internet Blitz to promote the Internet Campus.

This Saturday, April 12, we will be partnering with Frontline on a physical outreach to evangelize to those at the Cherry Blossom Festival. The teams will be handing out Internet Campus promo cards and bottles of water at metro stops while building relationships with the community. This is a great opportunity to serve and share your faith at once.

We're getting ready for our third online outreach event this Sunday. This time around we'll be reaching out to college students everywhere. I'm really excited to have John McGowan taking part in this event. John is the Director of our church's college ministry.

If you are a college student, parent or just interested in college ministry, I hope that you'll join us Sunday evening.

Here's a breakdown of what will happen. After the Frontline service is over we'll leave the Internet Campus open. Then minutes after Frontline ends (around 6:45 PM EST), we'll get started with a live video feed from the Internet Campus studio. I'll be there with John McGowan and we'll talk strategy. We'll go over a wide range of issues, including how to best minister to your college campus. We'll take live Q&A from The Lobby chat room and let you give us your address so we can send promo kits for you to use at your college. This should be a great night!

Our next Internet Campus outreach event will be our College Blitz this Sunday, April 6 after Frontline. This will be an interactive online meeting with John McGowan, Director of the church's college ministry. We will broadcast live from the Internet Campus studio while you ask questions via "The Lobby" chat room. Following the event, we will be mailing you Internet Campus posters and club cards for your campus.

If you are a college student and interested in learning more about how to impact your campus, this will be a great night for you! If you are out of college and still have a heart to reach college students, this night will benefit you as well.

Just log onto the Frontline Internet Campus after Frontline this Sunday!
