Prayer for the Week of October 26
Posted by tom | Oct 27, 2008Based upon a desire expressed by several partners in ministry to regularly uplift our family and ministry in focused prayer, we're moving toward the re-instatement of our prayer calendar in November. Please let us know if you desire to receive a PDF version of the below requests or the upcoming prayer calendar to use as a handout in fellowship groups, missions bulletin boards, prayer meetings, small groups, etc.
• Monday: Praise God for last Monday’s preparations for the Mid-Atlantic Graduate Student Winter Retreat. Pray for Tom as he works out details for the February 13-15 event. Note: Check out a post from last year's retreat at http://groshlink.net/archives/2008/01/27/god-thing.
• Tuesday: Praise God for last week’s successful campus mission at Loyola College, MD. Pray for plans to come together for a November 17th meeting focused on envisioning Loyola faculty for campus mission.
• Wednesday: The weekly C. S. Lewis Seminar at PSU – Harrisburg. Faculty and staff participants will discuss and apply Screwtape Letters, Chapter 13, to their life and vocation.
• Thursday: Focused time to blog with Christian scholars at http://blog.emergingscholars.org
• Weekend in Pittsburgh: Safe & peaceful travel, good nighttime sleep for the whole family, and significant conversations as we reconnect with friends and partners in ministry.
Dear friends, I urge you, as aliens & strangers in the world, to abstain from sinful desires, which war against your soul. Live such good lives among the pagans that, though they accuse you of doing wrong, they may see your good deeds & glorify God on the day he visits us. -- Peter 2:11-12
