Prayer Requests

Back to School Time

August 19, 2007 by Keith Seabourn Leave a Comment

Over the next few weeks, college students will be traveling to their college of choice. You may know some students who are going for their first time. If you know a student who might be interested in connecting with Campus Crusade for Christ’s ministry on their campus, check for information at using our ministry locator. Many of our campus groups have their own website and you can find information in the ministry locator. You can also find a contact person.

Click here for the ministry locator.

Why not pause right now and pray for the students you know who will be returning to college.

Some things to pray:

  • Pray that Christian students would find a place to connect spiritually through one of the excellent Christian groups on campus.
  • Pray that students who have not yet found Christ will have experiences that awaken and quicken their spiritual interest. Pray that they will find someone who truly follows Jesus who can share the gospel with them.
  • Pray for those fulltime vocation Christian workers with Campus Crusade for Christ, with Navigators, with InterVarsity, and with denominational ministries who will invest their lives these next months in seeking the lost and discipling the followers.
  • Pray for Christian professors who are sharing their lives with students every day in the classroom and in informal opportunities, sometimes in the midst of hostile environments where their economic futures may be adversely affected because of their ministry activities.

I recall how significant our colleges years were in spiritual formation in our lives. College was the time for both Kay and myself where we learned how to walk daily in the power of the Holy Spirit, where we learned how to and began the practice of taking the initiative in sharing Christ with others, where we made commitments to follow Christ for the rest of our lives and to participate in helping fulfill the Great Commission.

MinistryNet 2007: Bangkok

April 13, 2007 by Keith Seabourn 1 Comment

Kay and I have arrived in Bangkok to begin final preparations for MinistryNet 2007: Bangkok.

…a gathering for Campus Crusade for Christ staff involved in internet ministry (eMinistry). The conference will begin Sunday 15 April and end Thursday 19 April, 2007. The purpose of the conference is to connect people to people and people to God using internet technology so that everyone everywhere knows someone who truly follows Jesus.

Kay and I do several things to help promote increasing ministry fruitfulness through using internet communication tools. MinistryNet is one of them.

We’re expecting 100 people from 25 countries.

Kay traveled in Tuesday and arrived on Thursday morning just after midnight. I was delayed a day to make a presentation to Campus Crusade’s Global Leadership Team of the President and Vice-Presidents on the topic of measuring our ministry effectiveness in internet ministry. So 24 hours later on Wednesday, I began chasing Kay around the globe. I arrived Friday morning in the wee hours.

Prayer Request: Please pray for these 100 people as they are beginning to arrive. We start on Sunday evening. Please pray for my speaking as I welcome everyone on Sunday evening and set the tone of expectancy as we seek God’s blessings on increasing ministry fruitfulness.

Last year, hundreds of thousands came to know Jesus personally through our effective internet ministries. Each of these is personally followed up through hundreds of trained volunteers and Campus Crusade staff. MinistryNet is about doing more and better than ever before.

Off to Singapore

February 23, 2007 by Keith Seabourn 1 Comment

How well are we doing?

That is a very important question that we in Campus Crusade for Christ want to become better at answering. We want to know how we are doing in building local movements everywhere. We want to know how we are doing at helping everyone know someone who truly follows Jesus.

We are serious about our mission of

  • helping fulfill the Great Commission
  • through winning, building and sending
  • in the power of the Holy Spirit
  • so that local movements of evangelism and discipleship are established among every nation, every tribe, every people, and every language.

So I’m off to Singapore to meet with our leaders from around the world to help plan a measurement system to help us keep our finger on the pulse of movement-building around the world. This is a complex issue because we operate in over 140 countries, many languages, different cultures, similar but sometimes different priorities. In fact, the more I learn about Campus Crusade for Christ globally, the more I am amazed that we work together so well. It’s a testimony to God’s grace and his call on our lives. I don’t think it would work without our strong emphasis on walking in the power of the Holy Sprit.

It’s kind of like the way the church works!

Please pray for the following things:
1. For each of us to be filled with the Holy Spirit and be sensitive to His leading
2. That God would bind us together in unity even as we discuss difficult issues
3. That we would stay focused on the task at hand and leave with clear objectives
4. That God would lead us to His creative solutions to complex problems and opportunities

I’ll keep you posted…

Off to Amsterdam

January 20, 2007 by Keith Seabourn Leave a Comment

Today I leave for Amsterdam. Kay and I just returned from Africa, but I have an opportunity to help train staff in Europe in internet ministry. This is an exciting opportunity. These staff have some very innovative plans that will greatly increase fruitfulness in internet ministry. It’s fun to be around them and dream with them.

Please pray for our time:

  • Pray that God will bless with tremendous fruitfulness in ministry.
  • Pray that thousands will share eternity with us, experiencing God’s love and grace as a result of the training and ministry plans.
