In Daniel Bourdann\u00e9\u2019s farewell message to us last year, he spoke of the miracles we are witness to in the universities and reminded us that, \u201cThese undeserved graces have been given to stimulate our faith and inspire us to expect new and better chapters that God will write\u2026 Let us look forward by looking at Christ who always precedes us, for it is in him that we must place our security.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block block-core-cover alignfull\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-cover alignfull\"><span aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-cover__background has-background-dim-10 has-background-dim\"><\/span><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" class=\"wp-block-cover__image-background wp-image-13577\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/ifesworld.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/l-ormiston-ifes-wa-2019-evening-110719-31-1024x683.jpg\" style=\"object-position:56% 25%\" data-object-fit=\"cover\" data-object-position=\"56% 25%\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ifesworld.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/l-ormiston-ifes-wa-2019-evening-110719-31-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/ifesworld.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/l-ormiston-ifes-wa-2019-evening-110719-31-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ifesworld.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/l-ormiston-ifes-wa-2019-evening-110719-31-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ifesworld.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/l-ormiston-ifes-wa-2019-evening-110719-31-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/ifesworld.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/l-ormiston-ifes-wa-2019-evening-110719-31-2048x1365.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><div class=\"wp-block-cover__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-cover-is-layout-flow\"><div class=\"wp-block block-core-paragraph\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block block-core-heading\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Looking Forward at Christ<\/strong><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block block-core-paragraph\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Following a thorough discernment process, the Board believes that Tim is the right person to lead IFES at this time. Tim\u2019s heart for IFES ministry and our shared vision to reach students with the good news of Jesus Christ is clear. His role in developing and launching some of our innovative ministry projects in recent years is significant. Tim has been involved extensively in IFES global leadership. He has gained a deep understanding of who we are and built strong relationships across the Fellowship.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ifesworld.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Americas-cluster-california-1024x769.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13583\" width=\"512\" height=\"385\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ifesworld.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Americas-cluster-california-1024x769.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/ifesworld.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Americas-cluster-california-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ifesworld.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Americas-cluster-california-768x577.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ifesworld.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Americas-cluster-california-1536x1154.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/ifesworld.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Americas-cluster-california.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 512px) 100vw, 512px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block block-core-paragraph\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We all continue to be impacted by the coronavirus pandemic and face the wider realities of our changing world. The Board recognises the need to strengthen IFES for the future. We want IFES movements and staff to unite around a shared direction for our ministry. We want to find ways of working that supports strong national movements. We want many more students to hear the life-changing good news of Christ and to grow in him to be bold witnesses to his truth in all areas of their lives. We believe Tim brings the Christian leadership experience, humility and reliance on God to lead us on that path.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block block-core-paragraph\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Tim shares:<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block block-core-quote\">\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><div class=\"wp-block block-core-paragraph\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>I am humbled and honoured by this invitation from the IFES board [to serve as General Secretary].

Like the servants in Matthew 25 14-30 we have been entrusted by God with an important responsibility, and we want to be commended as \u201cgood and faithful\u201d when the Lord returns. As IFES General Secretary this means staying true to the legacy of prayer-fueled, Bible-focused, Christ-centered, locally-rooted student ministry which has been the hallmark of IFES for more than 70 years. It will involve re-energizing the network of national movements and staff that God has brought to this shared task. And it will require us to make bold moves forward so that together we are effective in equipping today\u2019s students to be faithful witnesses and lifelong disciples.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ifesworld.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Untitled-design-2-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13621\" width=\"512\" height=\"288\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ifesworld.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Untitled-design-2-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/ifesworld.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Untitled-design-2-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ifesworld.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Untitled-design-2-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ifesworld.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Untitled-design-2-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/ifesworld.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Untitled-design-2.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 512px) 100vw, 512px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block block-core-paragraph\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Tim\u2019s appointment as General Secretary will be effective from 1 January 2021.
