Prayer Request:
1) Now that we are past Thanksgiving, school life shifts into finals. Please pray that students who experience severe stress will find the help they need in Jesus!

2) Pray that as students prepare for Christmas break, that they will be moved upon by the Holy Spirit, to understand the reason for the season.

3) Pray for the Christian student groups on campus, if there are any. Pray that the Christian students will be bold witnesses leading up to the Christmas Break.

4) Please continue to pray with us: “The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few; therefore, plead with the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into His harvest.” (Luke 10.2 NASB)

5) Please remember to pray for the international population on campus (if present). Pray that they will experience all that God has for them while they are in the U.S.A.
