In May, a fire in a girl’s secondary school in Guyana claimed the lives of at least 19 children. In this week’s Prayerline, read about the response from IS/IVCF Guyana, and join us in praying with them as they respond to this extraordinary tragedy. l8r.it/9Eqe

Last October, for World Student Day, we prayed together that God would ‘renew’ student witness all around the world. Our latest Prayerline shares how God is answering those prayers in @scosouthafrica. l8r.it/8zg8

EURASIA 13/6 Praise God for the blessing of a meeting place for students to safely gather in a context that is hostile to Christian groups. Ask that this venue would be a welcoming place for seeking students.

EURASIA 12/6 Ask that God would bring unity amongst students and the wider community in CSC Moldova, especially between those of different languages.

EURASIA 11/6 Praise God for the opportunity to create Bible resources within a country that has experienced great upheaval. May the Word be a lamp in their challenging context.

EURASIA 10/6 Pray for the safety of staff, volunteers, and students in a country where restrictions mean uncertainty and instability in ministry.

EURASIA 9/6 Praise the Lord for ministry being funded in a new country through another meeting of students within the region.

EURASIA 8/6 Give great thanks for students in a sensitive country who are discipling each other and seeing many of their peers come to know the Lord.

CARIBBEAN 7/6 IFES Caribbean team gathers movements online for prayer regularly. Ask God that this commitment to prayer from staff would be an example to students.

CARIBBEAN 6/6 Pray for students in ISCCF Saint Vincent and the Grenadines who recently spent time thinking about how God’s goodness compels us to evangelise.

CARIBBEAN 5/6 “Love never fails! Pray for the Christian students at the University of Belize as they show the love of God to students on campus.” - IS/IVCF Belize

CARIBBEAN 4/6 Ask that God would provide for projects looking to equip staff and provide them with Bible study resources contextualised for their ministry contexts.

CARIBBEAN 3/6 Give thanks for Latavia, the only full-time staff member of IS/IVCF Cayman Islands, who moved from Jamaica to answer the call for staff.

CARIBBEAN 2/6 Ask for God’s blessing upon what the regional team is calling a post-covid ‘remnant’ of students serving faithfully across the region. Ask that God would sustain their resilience.

Identifying and nurturing younger leaders worldwide is a key part of our work. In our latest Conexión, meet some of the people growing through these efforts, and learn about further plans around the fellowship to shape and support upcoming leaders. l8r.it/60rj

STRENGTHENING NATIONAL MOVEMENTS 1/6 Praise God for staff and volunteers being trained in Indigenous Support Development. They have been seeing generosity spring up in diverse contexts.

STRENGTHENING NATIONAL MOVEMENTS 31/5 Pray for those who have had to postpone ministry activities due to security or other reasons. Ask that God would bless them with patience and inventive new ways to run programs and events.

In this week’s Prayerline, read about the encouraging surprises that emerged when students in @ifesdenmark asked their classmates to ‘Imagine’ during a mission week in April. l8r.it/0oRr
