Prayer Requests
CHRISTIAN UNION UNIVERSITY MINISTRIES
As the spring semester gets underway, please pray for students involved in Christian Union ministries. Pray the non-Christians would be drawn into a life—and eternity—changing relationship with Jesus Christ, and that the Christians on campus would seek God above all else and represent Him well as His ambassadors on campus.
CHRISTIAN UNION CITY MINISTRIES
Please pray for our CU New York forum on February 7. Professor William Hurlburt, faculty at Stanford Medical School, will be speaking on "The Challenge and Opportunity of Gene Editing: Scientific and Ethical Considerations." With new breakthroughs in biotechnology allowing us to manipulate genetics at every level of life, numerous difficult ethical questions arise, especially for Christians and the Church, in its application to direct interventions in human life. Learn more about the event here >
CHRISTIAN UNION DAY & NIGHT
As Christian Union Day & Night progresses toward its launch, please continue to pray for the final details, and planning. And please begin praying now that God would use Day & Night to reach many Christians and to help motivate them to pray for sweeping spiritual transformation in America.
