Praying for Student Ministry Leaders

Each of these posts will also be posted on my personal blog with details specific to my own faith family. If you are keeping up with me on both sites, these posts will be fairly similar each day. If you don't attend my church, I encourage you to pray for the leadership of your church.

I fondly remember the years my middle school and high school years. Many of my best memories came out of time spent with my youth group, adults at church who poured into me, and doing all kinds of things at church.

Today I'm praying for the men and women who lead our student ministry at our church. These guys are fantastic . . . they have been such an encouragement me to me!

• Pray for this team as they juggle the demands of investing in their families, serving students, and spending time with the Lord.
• Pray for each person BY NAME. Lift up any specific requests that you know of for each family represented.
• Pray for this team as they minister to students who are starting a new school year. Pray that the Lord will use the interactions between these students and the staff and volunteers will impact them for years to come.
• Pray for volunteers with a passion to reach students to lead small groups and pour into these teenagers.
• Pray for students to have courage and boldness when sharing the gospel with their friends.
• Pray for wisdom in determining the best ways to lead students and their families.

The list of requests that I can immediately come up with seem to be longer than I intend . . . let's make sure we're taking time to pray for these guys rather than just talking about praying!
