Deuteronomy 30:19-20

I call heaven and earth to witness against you today, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and curse. Therefore choose life, that you and your offspring may live, loving the Lord your God, obeying his voice and holding fast to him, for he is your life and length of days, that you may dwell in the land that the Lord swore to your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give them.

Kansas Report - Prayer Requests


To wrap up this trip, I thought I would end it with some prayer requests from the week. First off, the picture above is our team, "the Tennessee Team," at the country swing dance party.
Please pray for:
  • 11 students that we met that we know are going on summer mission trips this summer. They are preparing for them even now, and I pray that they will let God use them in mighty ways this summer. Pray for their safety as they travel, and pray that God will touch many lives through their willingness to serve Him during their summer break.
  • There are several students that we met during the week that confessed that they did not know Christ. Please pray for their salvation. Pray that they will continue to attend events hosted by Christian Challenge so that they may hear the Gospel, and pray that the Christian Challenge students can find these students and have opportunities to show them Christ.
  • In particular, there are 2 students that I met that are eating lunch with a Christian Challenge student this week. Please pray for good conversation and the opportunity to discuss the Gospel.
  • Pray for the leaders of Christian Challenge as they continue to lead the group. They sacrifice a lot for those students, and they are truly a blessing.
  • Pray for Fort Hays State University. There were lots of things that we heard about that take place on campus that we were surprised to hear. And as we prayer walked the campus, we did feel a spiritual darkness present. Please pray that Christian Challenge can help lift that darkness and that the lives of the students will be radically changed for Christ.

Thanks for your prayers as we went to Kansas during spring break. There was so much more that happened while we were there, but I feel as if I have hit the highlights for you this past week. This has been our trip! God was amazing, and He showed up in miraculous ways all week long! I am thankful to have gotten to know the Christian Challenge students at FHSU, and I pray that they continue to serve Christ.

Matt
