This week, we are sending two teams out to make disciples over their Spring Break. One team will be going to Paris, France to participate in diaspora missions among unreached West African Muslims. Another team will be splitting their time between Philadelphia, PA and Baltimore, MD to serve alongside church plants in both of these cities. Throughout the week, we ask that you would pray for these teams filled with our students and faculty, and pray that God would do a mighty work in all three of these cities. Prayer Requests Below.
Paris Prayer Requests:
- Pray for boldness for our team to share the gospel, and pray that those who will hear the gospel will repent and folow Christ.
- Pray the Lord would work in a team member’s life during this trip to further clarify God’s calling on her life and grow desires in her for ministry that align with God’s will.
- Pray for a team member’s work on this trip to be for the Lord first and foremost. Not to rely on her own strength or power, but to fully rely on the Lord in all that she does on this trip. Pray for her to remember that it is God alone who changes hearts and brings people to salvation.
- Pray for a team member’s eyes to be open and her heart to be ready for all the opportunities that the Lord provides while the team is in Paris.
