PRAYERS OF THE WEEK:
For Our Students
This week we started a new series called "Like Glue" - which focuses on how to have healthy, thriving, biblically relationships. Each week we are focusing on a different trait of relationship; this week we talked about love. We’ve probably all heard someone say, “I love him, but I don’t like him right now.” In that attitude, we treat love as some sort of concept we are required to embrace—especially with relatives—but there are no concrete, day-to-day expressions of love. Yet the starting point for any strong relationship is love—love that is expressed in both attitudes and actions. Jesus modeled this kind of love for us, and calls us to do the same. Let love overflow into every relationship. Pray that our students will see the intentional ways they can love those around them - that they will be known as people who love, and love well. Pray that they will love selflessly and sacrificially.

For Our Ministry
Pray that student-leader relationships would grow as they do life together to mature in and for the glory of Christ.

PRAYER REQUESTS FROM OUR STUDENTS:
- Strength to talk to more people about God. Confidence that God will take care of me.
- That my mom gets a job
- That my autoimmune meds keep working so I can live life not tired all the time.
- I want to be closer to God and think I need help.

STUDENTS IN OUR MINISTRY:
Please take a moment to pray for these students individually. Pray over their week, family life, friendships, and character.

PRAYERS OF THE WEEK:
For Our Students
This week we focused on John 15:12-13 "My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you. Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one's life for one's friends." Pray that students would see that abiding in Christ is the secret to continual growth. Pray that in Him they will produce fruit: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. Pray that they will know and see that apart from Christ they can do nothing.

 For Our Ministry
Pray that our students wouldn’t just come to Church, but own it, using their gifts, talents and influence to serve the kingdom. Pray that students would be bringing others into a life changing relationship with God and each other.

PRAYER REQUESTS FROM OUR STUDENTS:
- Help things at home get better. Pray for my mom, she is doing rehab and wants to get sober. Best friend is moving. 

- Our financial problems to not get in the way of finding us a home. 
- That everyone will come to church with me one day
- I need help with depression and suicidal thoughts, controlling my rage, finding myself, feeling emotions better. I want to be closer to God and think I need help.

STUDENTS IN OUR MINISTRY:
Please take a moment to pray for these students individually. Pray over their week, family life, friendships, and character.

PRAYERS OF THE WEEK:
For Our Students
This week we started a new series called "Beyond Me". The students were challenged to love - to love more than they have to give. Pray that they know that that is possible. That by remaining in Jesus, they will have everything they need to love abundantly. Pray that if any of them have things they need to give up to follow passionately after Jesus, that they would have the strength and courage to do so. Pray that they let Him determine their desires, and that they would love as He loves. Pray that John 15:5 is real to them, and that they really see that they can do nothing apart from Jesus. 

For Our Ministry

Pray that the Gospel is proclaimed boldly, clearly, and often. Pray that the good news of God’s grace would be received and trusted. Pray for revival to come to Fusion and Thrive.  

 PRAYER REQUESTS FROM OUR STUDENTS:
- I pray that some friends of my family would find God's peace and love after losing a loved one.
- Graduation, moving out, going to college
- That I'll be safe and not have recurring nightmares
- My friend is attempted suicide multiple times. Pray that she will not want to cut and get help.
 

STUDENTS IN OUR MINISTRY:
Please take a moment to pray for these students individually. Pray over their week, family life, friendships, and character.
