8.6% graduated before 1997, 9.3% graduated in 1997, 17.4% graduated in 1998, 19% graduate in 1999, 21.3% graduate in 2000, 13.3% graduate in 2001, 7.2% graduate in 2002, and 1.5% graduate after 2002

Pre-1997 attend church more frequently than 1998, 1999, and 2000 (slightly less than few times/week)

Pre-1997 read the Bible on their own more frequently than 1998, 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002, post-2002 (a few times/week); in addition, those graduating in 1997 read more frequently than those slated to graduate in the years 2000, 2001, and 2002 (less than few times/week); also, those graduating in 1998 reported reading more frequently than those who will graduate in the years 2001 and 2002 (more than about once/week); finally, those graduating in 1999 read more frequently than those graduating in the year 2001 (more than about once/week)

Classes of 1997, 1998, 1999, 2000, 2001, and 2002 hang out with Christian friends more frequently than those from pre-1997 (less than few times/week)

Class of 1998 does things to build friendships with non-Christians more frequently than 2001 (slightly less than once/week)

Those graduating pre-1997 invited non-Christian friends to talk about Jesus more frequently than the graduates from the years 2001 and 2002 (slightly less than once/month); 1997 graduates also invited these talks more frequently than the graduates from the years 2001 and 2002 (less than once/month); finally, those graduating in both 1998 and 1999 invited their non-Christian friends to talk about Jesus with them more frequently than those from the class of 2002 (less than once/month)

Those graduating pre-1997 invited non-Christian friends to talk about Jesus with an adult friend more frequently than those from 1997, 1998, 1999, 2000, 2000, 2001, and 2002 (more than seldom happens)

Those graduating pre-1997 help plan evangelistic events more frequently those from 1997, 1998, 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002, and post-2002 (slightly less than once/month)

Those graduating pre-1997 share their personal testimony more frequently those from 2000, 2001, and post-2002 (slightly less than once/month)

Overall percentages were predictably modified because later samples only drew from the population of 1998, 1999, and 2000 graduates. Adjustments are: 7% graduated before 1997, 7% graduated in 1997, 20% graduated in 1998, 21% graduate in 1999, 24% graduate in 2000, 12% graduate in 2001, 6% graduate in 2002, and <1% graduate after 2002

The differences cited above continue to be in place as reported when additional surveys are included, with the following additional findings/modifications:

Class of 1998 was joined by classes of 1999 and 2000 to do things to build friendships with non-Christians more frequently than 2001 and 2002 (slightly less than once/week)

Classes of 1998 and 2000 pray with others for specific friends to become Christians more frequently than post-2002 (about once a month) THIS CHANGE REFLECTS AN INFUSION OF POSITIVE IMPROVEMENT IN THIS ITEM AS A RESULT OF THE CONFERENCE VERSUS A CLASS THAT WAS NOT SUBSEQUENTLY SURVEYED.

It is significantly more likely to be true--either because of DC/LA or before DC/LA--that those from the class of 1998 rather than those of 2000 are able to share their rescue story at any time
