Thank you for joining us in prayer!
YOUTH CAMP is this week, July 2-6. We have a total of 28 students going to Crossings Camp at Johnathan’s Creek in Hardin, Kentucky. Here are some things we can be praying for the students and our leaders.
Spiritual Growth & Receptivity
•Open Hearts: Pray that students' hearts are softened and receptive to the Gospel, free from distractions or resistance.
•Salvation & Renewal: Intercede for students who do not know Christ to experience His saving grace, and for believers to experience personal revival.
•Focus on Worship: Pray that worship sessions and cabin devotions are anointed, allowing students to engage deeply in spirit and truth.
•Boldness in Decisions: Ask God to give youth the courage to make lasting life changes and take steps of obedience.
Leadership & Speaker Anointing
•Wisdom for Staff: Pray that camp directors, counselors, and volunteers have endless energy, patience, and discernment to mentor the teens effectively.
•The Speakers & Worship Teams: Lift up the guest speakers and worship leaders. Pray that their messages are grounded in Scripture and exactly what the campers need to hear.
Community & Relationships
•Authentic Connections: Pray that campers break out of their shells, build God-honoring friendships, and feel loved and supported by their leaders.
•Unity & Harmony: Ask God to minimize conflicts, gossip, or cliques, fostering an inclusive and peaceful camp environment.
Safety & Health
•Travel Protection: Petition for safe journeys to and from the campsite for everyone involved.
•Physical Health: Pray against illness, dehydration, or homesickness, and lift up the camp nurses or medical staff on duty.
•Environmental Safety: Pray for favorable weather and divine protection during all outdoor activities.
Colossians 3:23: Pray that volunteers serve with joy, doing their work heartily as unto the Lord rather than unto men.
