Some prayer requests on behalf of our Australian partners:
1. Pray for AussieCru staff and students to meet lots of new interested students during this year. Pray for continued follow up to happen even during the Pandemic time. Pray they would be able to return to campus in the fall and reach new students! 2. Did you know there are three Maryland Cru alumni working with Power to Change (Cru) in Melbourne in 2020? Let's lift them up in prayer - pray for God to draw them intimately to himself this year as they're on mission, for perseverance in their efforts to bring the gospel to the Aussies on the campuses in the city, for good communication and supernatural love for one another this year, and for God's provision for all of their needs. Pray for them by name: Chad, Megan,,and Gina. 3. Some Aussie stats to consider as you pray - There are nearly 200,000 university students in the city of Melbourne. Roughly 50% of the population is international, coming from 180 different countries around the world, such as China, Malaysia, Vietnam, Sri Lanka, India, Greece, South Africa. 116 different religious faiths are represented... so to take the gospel to Melbourne, you have the opportunity to take it to the nations. 4. More to consider - Melbourne is highly irreligious and secularized. Many Aussie university students do not know a single person who follows Jesus. They don't even know who to ask if they were curious. They have virtually no access to the gospel. |
