Pray for Change
There are so many ways that we can foster a hunger for Jesus, but the most important and primary thing is to be praying for the Holy Spirit to change our hearts, because we're just fully dependent on the Spirit to bring that hunger and sanctify it.
Amy DiMarcangelo is the author of A Hunger for More: Finding Satisfaction in Jesus When the Good Life Doesn’t Fill You And she talks about her book in the video below and click the link above to find out more about the book.

The prayer points for this week.
20 – 26 May
Ulster University, Jordanstown campus is dissolving at the end of this semester. There will be an event in June to look back on Jordanstown CU and give thanks for its ministry on campus, whilst also looking forward to the future and the opportunities God will provide for students as they move to the Magee or Belfast campuses.
Pray for new CU leaders as they navigate this transition period and adjust to their new campuses, especially after the past two years of disruptions.
Pray that the CUs at Ulster University – Magee and Belfast – and their campuses are blessed by this change and that God will minister to any students who might be worried about the move. Pray that the CU committees might be able to use their passion for the gospel to think creatively and carefully as to how best to reach these new groups of students.
