Pray that all of us, from home office staff, field staff, international staff, the leadership team be walking in the Spirit, keeping in step with the Spirit so that even as we are often stretched thin with the large number of needs and opportunities, that we walk in unity as one in our diversity (of gifts, thought, styles, scope, experiences, etc.). Even when we disagree, that we can rumble with vulnerability so that students can see how special the Body of Christ is "even when hard pressed, perplexed, persecuted, struck down, carrying the Body of Christ in his death so that the world can see the life of Christ lived out in our bodies." ( paraphrase 2 Corinthians 4:8-10)

Pray for favor with university officials all over the country.

Pray for workers for the harvest both at a staff level and volunteers. Pray that God puts us in places where we an find those who he has pre-disposed to ministry to international students.
