We are so grateful for your continued prayers and support for CU Gloria Law. As we step into this new semester, we wanted to share a special update from a milestone moment for our ministry—our very first Winter Retreat at the end of January!
This retreat was a much-needed time for our community to step away from the intensity of law school and refocus our hearts on Christ and His calling for us. Our theme, “Refocus,” guided us through a weekend of renewing our commitment to Jesus, recalling the purpose He has given us, and refreshing our passion to share the Gospel with those around us. From the moment we arrived, there was an undeniable sense that God had something special in store. We were blessed by sweet times of worship, honest and moving student testimonies, deep times of prayer, and messages from the Word of God that challenged and encouraged us.
One of the most significant takeaways from the retreat was how it strengthened our sense of community. Between meals, late-night conversations and rounds of Mafia, and shared moments of laughter and reflection, we built friendships that we believe will last for years to come. Harvard Law can be a challenging and isolating place, but this retreat reminded us that we are not alone. God has placed us here for a reason, and He has surrounded us with brothers and sisters to walk together.
More than anything, the retreat stirred in us a fresh burden for those around us who do not yet know Christ. We spent intentional time in prayer, asking God to open doors for Gospel conversations and to soften hearts on our campus. We prayed for classmates by name, believing that God is actively at work at Harvard Law. We also asked for boldness—that we wouldn’t shrink back in fear or busyness but would step forward in faith to be lights in this place.
As we step into this semester, we ask for your continued prayer and support:
- Pray for boldness and faithfulness as we seek to share the Gospel with those around us.
- Pray for hearts to be open to Jesus—that the classmates and friends we are reaching out to would come to know Him personally.
- Pray for spiritual endurance, that our community would remain strong in faith amidst the demands of law school.
- Pray for God’s provision to continue growing and sustaining this ministry.
We also invite you to consider supporting CU Gloria Law financially. Your generosity makes retreats like this possible, provides resources for discipleship, and helps us continue creating spaces where students can grow in their faith. Every gift—large or small—helps equip us for the work God has called us to here at Christian Union Gloria Law.
Thank you for standing with us in prayer and support. We are so encouraged by what God is doing, and we know He is not finished yet!
In sincerity and appreciation,
