August 27th, 2008

Today I leave for our student retreat. On the 2nd, school will start. This is an important time of recruitment and laying the foundation for the whole semester. I really need your prayers!

1. For me...meeting new people, establishing new relationships, etc. These things are draining for me! Pray for grace and strength as I interact with a whole host of new friends.

2. For the ministry...pray that God would guide me to the right young men. Guys who are hungry to grow and through whom I can reach the lost.

3. For our returning students...that they would have a heart to take the gospel to their fellow students!

Prayer requests for this week:

1. Two of my teammates are struggling some in their fund-raising. Would you pray for them to be fully funded by the time school starts on Sept. 2nd? Their names are Mikey and Michelle.

2. This weekend, we are having a staff retreat. We will be getting to know one another and also planning for the year. Would you pray for unity, friendship, and wisdom?

3. Next week, we have a student leader's retreat. Would you pray for vision, zeal, and unity for our student leader's team?

Back again! This blog will now be updated every Wednesday with new prayer requests. I would love to coordinate prayer each week with a few people committed to pray on each day. Interested? Email me and let me know what day.

I am moved into Long Beach and preparing for my new role with the Navigators...ministering to college students at California State University-Long Beach. Here are some prayer requests as I prepare for the new school year.

1. For unity and love on our team. Four of us are new, from four different campuses!

2. For humility and wisdom as I adjust to a new campus and a new culture.

3. For three faithful, available, and teachable guys to invest in this semester.
