Pray for Our College Students

Remember our many college students all around the country as they pursue their schooling.  

Pray for our students:

• as they travel to and from school over the coming weeks and months
• as they endure the rigors of study, exams, and other school requirements
• as they strive to maintain balance in their busy lives and to make good decisions regarding relationships, activities, and lifestyle choices
• that are away from home and starting out on this new adventure for the very first time
• that God would be an active and growing part of their college experience, and that by trusting in Him their faith would be deepened
