Prayer Requests
UNIVERSITY MINISTRIES
A panel entitled "Christianity and the Arts" was presented at Columbia. More than 100 students were in attendance. Praise the Lord for His work through each of the artists and the impact their words were able to have on the students. God is glorified through art, and we praise Him for creating beauty and eyes to behold it.
A number of students involved in the ministry at Harvard have developed a deep desire and longing to study the Scriptures. Let us pray for their diligence in drawing near to the Lord as they seek Him, and that He would speak powerfully through His Word.
Princeton students involved in Christian Union's ministry have returned from their week-long winter retreat. Praise the Lord for four students who placed their faith in Christ for the first time. Continue to pray for their growth and discipleship as they attend Bible course and learn a seeking God lifestyle.
CITY MINISTRIES
Seth Ward will be presenting a salon for New York City Christian Union to discuss our artistic and musical nature. Please pray for those in attendance to understand further God's purposes for art and music in our lives, and for His glory to be shown through such powerful means. Pray for Seth as he presents and demonstrates his own experience of God's work in his life.
CHRISTIAN UNION DAY & NIGHT
Christian Union Day and Night has continued to grow and lead many more to seek the Lord in the morning and the evening. Praise the Lord for how these twice-daily devotionals are drawing many to seek His face. Pray for the encouragement of others to not only receive the devotionals, but also to expand their passion for seeking God.
