Friends,
I pray you had a blessed Christmas and New Year as you celebrated with family and friends. As we, the Christian Union ministry staff at Brown University, enjoyed hosting out-of-town family and enjoying the normal seasonal celebrations, all has been pretty quiet on campus. All this will be changing now as students have just returned to campus and began classes on Wednesday. Given that students have just returned, I don’t have much to share, but I would ask that you pray for this upcoming semester.
Pray that Jesus, by His Spirit, would empower us, Matt Woodard, Ministry Director, Laurel Copp, Ministry Fellow and me, to continue to love these students well, pointing them always to Jesus. Please pray that He would grant us wisdom as we begin to transition to a new group of student leaders. And, finally, pray that we would reach those who are far from Jesus with the transforming power of the gospel. To do that we must have His strength and wisdom, so please hold us in your prayers.
I promise to have more to share in my next prayer email. Until then, may our great Redeemer continue to shower you with His unending grace and mercy that you might bring Him glory and honor in all that you do and say.
Grace and Peace,
Justin Doyle
Christian Union Ministry Fellow
Brown University
