College Prayer

John Canavan wants your prayers. He sent out this eblast to the church on Wednesday.

Dear Tenth Presbyterian Church,


Did you read the Tenth Press article last Sunday? If you did, I'm sure you will remember my request for prayer. Many of you who went to college in the Philadelphia area will understand the complexities of trying to reach just one campus with the gospel. Tenth College Fellowship (TCF) is trying to reach many colleges throughout the Philadelphia area. So, even if you did not read the Tenth Press article, you will understand my request for prayer.

First, I would like you to consider praying for the hearts and minds of college students throughout the Philadelphia area and beyond. Pray for those Christian high school students transitioning to college, particularly our own Maranatha alumni. Also pray for the many students who will encounter the gospel for the first or perhaps the fiftieth time. Finally, pray for the work and ministry of TCF as we minister the gospel to many college students this year.

I have listed most of the colleges in your parish below. Would you pray for the students and faculty of those colleges in your neighborhood? If you went to college in Philadelphia, would you also pray for the students and faculty of your alma mater? Finally, pray for our Maranatha alumni as they begin or continue their college studies. Check for prayer updates on Marion Clark's blog as the fall semester begins.

Sincerely,

John Patrick Canavan
Director of Tenth College Fellowship
