The prayer points for this week.
18th-24th March
Pray for EQUIP: Leaders taking place for Republic-based CU leaders. Please pray for a good turnout from new CU leaders, pray for a good time of community as they learn into their new roles as leaders, pray for us staff as we lead the weekend as well, and that the new leaders will remain faithful to God in all that they do for the year ahead
We thank God for the provision of CU leaders for another year. Praise Him for His faithful provision throughout the years, and how He is continuing to use students as vessels to share the Good News. Please pray for these new leaders, that they would keep God at the centre of all they do, finding joy in serving Him on campus.
