“the Lord replied, ‘My presence will go with you, and I will give you rest.’”
Exodus 33:14
Summertime is here! For many of us, this means ample time spent outdoors, enjoying the presence of others, and much-needed rest and relaxation. Many of our students are now out of school and entering a new rhythm of their day-to-day lives as well. Similarly, our Kids Hope USA programs are entering into a rhythm of their own of quietness, rest, and beginning to both reflect on the past school year and prepare for the next.
As we move into the summer, we ask you to join us in prayer as we recognize that while many good things are happening, summertime can also present unique challenges to those in our programs and surrounding communities.
- We ask that you pray for safety, protection, and refreshment over our students.
- We ask that you pray for strengthened church-school partnerships and for God’s provision in establishing new programs across the country.
- We ask that you pray for God’s guidance and wisdom in pairing new mentors and students this upcoming school year.
- We ask that you pray for new volunteers and directors to come forward for programs that need new leadership and participation.
- We ask that you pray for rest, encouragement, and peace for our teachers, school administrators, church staff, and Kids Hope USA volunteers.
