Summer Prayers and Praises

 Praises

• Praise God for our wonderful staff retreat in May in Moab and for a good team dynamic
• Praise God for our new staff Ken and Kenzie Meyer who are moving to Cedar City
• Praise God for the 21 staff and students who gave up their summer to do the Provo summer program with InterVarsity and for the friendships that have already been made!
• Praise God that our area will end the year in the black and that God continues to provide for our area and our family!

Prayers

• Pray for Ken and Kenzie, Abbie, and Matt as they all raise money to be on campus in the fall
• Pray for the Provo GP: for trust to be built, for opportunities for spiritual conversations and to share the Gospel, and for students to learn how to live out the Gospel through incarnational living.  Pray for Brad as he directs the GP; we would love specific prayers for good sleep for him. 
• Pray for our family's health.  While we have all been sick this year, Samantha has been experiencing chronic health issues since September.  We are in the midst of trying to figure out a diagnosis for her.  Please pray for her healing but also for wisdom and peace.  We are currently waiting on a set of results that will tell us if she has an autoimmune disease.
• Pray that God would continue to use the Provo GP, the spring break trips, and any other means to send staff and volunteers to our area.  We would love to see a full-time staff worker at UVU, at USU Eastern, and at BYU. 
• Pray for Justin as he prepares to teach at a regional staff retreat at the end of July.  Pray for our staff team as they attend this retreat that God would use it to bless them and prepare them for the coming school year.
• Pray for continued unity and good team dynamics among our staff team

Thank you!
