Dear Christian Union New York Cornerstone Partners and friends of the ministry,
Your prayers for Christian Union New York are bearing so much fruit! Christian Union New York is thrilled to announce to you that after many months in the making, CU New York has established its own Advisory Board! Christian Union as a whole has been operating under the guidance and wisdom of a board for many years. But now, as CU New York continues to expand and solidify the means of accomplishing its mission (including one day expanding into other major cities), Christian Union leadership has determined that it was time to establish this localized board. This board will help advise, multiply the hands and feet, talents, areas of expertise, experience, and networking connections of CU New York.

Dear CU Martus Cornerstone Partners and friends of the ministry,
We’re back into the swing of things at Penn and the main focus is leadership. 1 Timothy 3:1-2 states, “The saying is trustworthy: If anyone aspires to the office of overseer, he desires a noble task. Therefore an overseer must be above reproach…”
This semester is a significant time for our students as we are seeing the fulfillment of 1 Timothy 3:1-2 happen before our eyes as we prepare for a “change of the guard” with our student ministry team leaders (MTL’s) and assistant Bible course leaders (ABCLs). We have big shoes to fill as many of our current leaders are graduating seniors this year. However, this provides a great opportunity for aspiring leaders to rise to the occasion to lead next.

Dear CU Nova Cornerstone Partners and friends of the ministry,
Let “every valley be lifted up and every mountain and hill be made low” that the glory of the Lord may be revealed (Is 40:4)!
The world may be distracted by matters related to Covid, and restrictions may limit student interaction in many ways, but the glory of the Lord is being revealed within Christian Union Nova as we kick off a new semester!

Dear CU Libertas Cornerstone Partners and friends of the ministry,
Greetings from Providence! The spring semester is underway as students began the spring semester on January 26th. Covid continues to wreak havoc in the northeast, especially here in Rhode Island. Fortunately, students will be attending classes in person and we do not anticipate any disruptions to our ministry calendar. It has been so wonderfully refreshing to greet students as they return to campus, and the time spent praying with them has been a blessing.

Dear CU Vita Cornerstone Partners and friends of the ministry,
Greetings from Ithaca! The spring semester is getting underway this week. Our students are once again enduring the realities and restrictions of life with Covid. Group gatherings are currently discouraged and while students are on campus, all classes at Cornell are being taken remotely for the first two weeks of the semester. We are, however, hopeful that things will open up soon. We have been holding weekly CU Vita student leadership meetings via Zoom for the past two weeks, and we will meet again this coming Thursday night. We have been reconnecting and praying together, and fine-tuning our plans for the semester ahead, some of which I will describe in the following prayer requests.

Dear CU Vox Cornerstone Partners and friends of the ministry,
Hello from Hanover! As many of you know, the Dartmouth academic calendar is different than most schools. Winter term classes began on January 4th so we are well underway with life and ministry. The start of a new year and a new term always bring renewed energy and enthusiasm. It’s always a delight to have the campus filled with students and bursting with activity. The rhythms of Bible courses, daily prayer, social events, Leadership Lecture Series, and one-on-one mentorship are well established and are serving to challenge and encourage the students this term. Join me in praying for these items:

Hello CU Caritas Cornerstone Partners and friends of the ministry,
Happy New Year from Palo Alto!
George Muller, the 19th century’s famous father of orphans and giant in prayer, wrote some profound words about the importance of our happiness in God and the role of God’s word in that pursuit. I can think of few more helpful ideas to commend to you in this new year! Muller writes,

Dear Cornerstone Partners and friends of CU Lux,
Who is God? A three-word question seeking an answer at Yale. God is more wonderful than our words can express. He is always better than we can imagine, infinitely more than we can grasp. His majesty and glory are greater than our imagination. But God becomes Emmanuel: God with us, God with the world, God with Yale. To relate to us and for us to relate to him, he makes himself known in conversation. The conversation reaches a climax when the Word becomes flesh (John 1), and we at CU Lux have seen his glory.
