Prayer Cards and Programs ~ DC4T
Almost every week at Brickhouse we invite students to fill out prayer cards. The most common request is for God to help them with their grades. I often wonder if they are asking for God’s help in learning the material as they study it or if they are hoping for something more miraculous like “please change all my answers on the scan-tron sheet to the correct answers because I didn’t study and every answer is a guess!” Either way I love that students are expressing their faith in God through the prayer cards.
Other prayer concerns are deeper and more personal. Prayers for sick Grandmothers, prayers for a friend who’s parents are getting divorced, or prayers for dad who is out of work.
I am often thrilled to read the request of students whose request is related to the message I taught that evening. It is very rewarding to see that they have processed the talk and are ready to ask for God’s help in applying what they have learned.
Each week we receive the cards and pray for that student’s needs and concerns. However, there are times when we feel called to respond to the prayer cards with more than a prayer. Sometimes we feel called to minister to our student’s needs with both prayer and action (not that prayer isn’t action… it is!).
One such ministry is Divorce Care for Teens which will begin it’s second season on Tuesday, January 19th. DC4T meets weekly and is lead by Tiffany Nottingham, Cyndi Schoon and Norm Vugteveen. There is NO CHARGE for participating in DC4T. Weekly meetings are on Tuesday evenings from 6:30 – 8:30 PM. For more information or to register contact Tiffany Nottingham at 219-322-6400 ext. 303.
