Five ways to pray for mission in Bulgaria, Montenegro and Wales this summer

For over 30 years, UCCF summer teams made up of students, Staff Workers and Relay Workers head to Europe to partner with CU movements there. It's vital work – not only encouraging other movements as they share the gospel in their contexts, but also in building-up evangelists in the CUs and growing young hearts for cross-cultural mission.

This month, three teams are gearing up for mission. Two teams are hopping on planes to Montenegro and Bulgaria while a third partakes in a home mission in Ammanford, Carmarthenshire.

Here's how you can pray:

  1. Pray that the teams would serve humbly, seeking to glorify God in all they do.
  2. For the students attending English language summer camps. Pray that God would soften their hearts to the gospel and many would accept Jesus as Lord.
  3. For the deepening of relationships within the teams themselves and between UCCF teams, IFES movements and local churches.
  4. Pray for the students from CUs across the country: that they will develop a life-long love of evangelism and cross-cultural mission.

Thank you for praying. Your prayers are essential to God's work through these summer teams.
