Prayer Support

We gathered around and prayed for Jason at the prayer meeting.  He is a senior in high school (grade 12).

He is a young man who who asked to be baptized when he was 13 years old.  He is a committed follower of Christ since.

He will be writing the three-day college entrance exam this week (January 13-15).   If he scores well, he will proceed to interviews at prospective universities.  If his score is less than desired, he can choose to write the exam again in July.

When facing high-pressure moments like this, many high school students will cut out other activities and focus on studying for months before the exam.  But last week Jason testified that he is choosing to continue attending church, even during this time of intense study.  It is evidence that following Christ continues to be a priority in his life.

Join us in praying:

  • That God will help him this week to review topics that will be useful to him while writing the exam.
  • That God will protect him from worry, and help him to express himself well on the exams.
  • That God will continue to fill Jason with faith as he trusts his Saviour to direct his future studies.

Praise and Prayer

  • Preparations for the lunar new year have begun.  We, like neighbours, have begun our Spring cleaning.  There will be a church building clean-up on Saturday (Jan. 14).  Pray that people will be as conscious of the need for cleaning of their inner lives as well.
  • International workers from the region are gathering Jan. 17-20.  Please pray for safety in travel and encouragement as we share “God-at-work” sightings.”
