Prayer Requests
- Please pray for Noah and Yume as they co-lead the Saturday Bible study; they are leading it in Yume's dorm - please also pray that Yume's non-Christian roommates would attend!
- Pray for us as we discern next steps for the many young Christians in our group. We want to give them opportunities to lead and serve.
- Pray for continued and strengthened relationships at the Institute. While we have a good relationship with David (a professor), it has been difficult getting the Institute fully on board with our faith discussions this year.
- Pray for students to sign up for Fall Retreat! This week we have a special discount for students who register early and we are hoping to have 10 students sign up by Saturday. Students who attend this event are more likely to stick around the whole year. It is also a great opportunity to build trust and share the Gospel with non-Christian students.
- We are currently looking for a worship leader for our retreat and the dates are coming up quickly. Please pray God sends us the right person.
- Pray for Justin, Trevor, David and I as we each prepare to teach parts of the Fall Retreat.
- Pray for our Christian students to take risks in inviting their friends to InterVarsity activities and in starting spiritual conversations with them.
- Please pray for us personally to have energy to keep up with everything. Justin is working 10+ hour days most of the time and we are starting to get tired.
- Pray that God would foster a heart of prayer in our community.
- UVU's club fair is this week (Sep. 10-11); please pray that God would send curious non-Christians, freshmen and Christian students to our table!
