Dear CU Libertas Cornerstone Partners and friends of the ministry,<\/p>\n
It\u2019s summer here in Rhode Island, which means late afternoons at the local beaches and eating far too many lobster rolls! Normally, campus is far too quiet this time of year as most students return home or spend their days as interns or working in labs. This year is a bit different, as we\u2019re excited to have freshmen on campus for their second semester. We continue preparations for the fall and eagerly await transitioning to normal programming in the fall. Thankfully, it appears that Brown will be fully vaccinated and campus activities can resume with few, if any, restrictions!<\/p>\n
Please pray that we can make connections with the freshmen on campus \u2014 that God would provide opportunities to grow deeper in our relationships with them, that they would feel warmly welcomed into our community, and that they would all hear and embrace the gospel.<\/p>\n
Pray for our student leaders as they begin planning the details of our freshmen welcoming campaign and vision cast for the fall semester. Ask that God would guide them in setting realistic, yet ambitious goals! We want the entire campus, student and faculty alike, to be saturated with prayer and proclamation.<\/p>\n
Pray as well that God would raise up more and more student leaders eager to take on the work of reaching their peers through evangelistic efforts and outreach activities! Coming out of the pandemic, we have lots of work to do to reach both this year\u2019s incoming students and all those who chose to study remotely last year.<\/p>\n
Thank you for your continued prayers and support! We could not do this work without you and are so truly grateful for your partnership.<\/p>\n
