Is there a prayer group connected to your Christian school? Perhaps you like to pray for your school over dinner with your family or during staff devotions at school?

If you are, can we plainly say thank you! We’d like to share why that’s so important – and good things to pray for each month. Subscribe to receive these in your inbox each month.

Through prayer, God keeps growing our schools

When you look at the 300 or so schools we represent, all of them have origin stories that involve prayer. A handful of parents who started praying for funds, for land, for approvals, for buildings, for teachers and for students.

Those prayers have been mightily answered. There are now more than 150,000 students in Christian schools across our Associations. Praise God!

It’s time to pray for the future

Most families who have joined our schools are attracted by our values, if not the Gospel of Jesus itself.

While we thank God for providing in the past, we’re seeing storm clouds on the horizon, and that needs to take us back to prayer, to depend on God, and ask him to direct those in authority — for the benefit of our children and their children.

Tell it to your children, and let your children tell it to their children, and their children to the next generation. — Joel 1:3

Let’s pray

Each month we want to equip you to pray for what we face. We will send you a one-page Prayer Briefing with prompts to help you pray for the future. We’ll also keep you updated on how the Lord is answering our prayers.
