Can You Believe that Spring is Here?

It is amazing to think that we are already past the halfway point in the spring semester of 2010! Each year goes by a little faster than the one before. This year at UNCC, God has worked in mighty ways. Many men and women are coming to faith in Jesus Christ and that is a testament to the labor of the staff at UNCC, your faithful support and prayers and most importantly the work of the Holy Spirit in people's hearts. Below is a brief rundown of what events have been going on and what you can specifically pray for coming up. Thank you for your willingness to partner with us in prayer!

Prayer Requests

This season is one of the busiest seasons of the year. There is a ton of work to finish the 2nd half of the semester strong and prepare for the summer projects. We would greatly appreciate your partnership with us by praying for a couple of key things:

1. The CCP team - pray for many logistics to be worked out, support raising for the students and for God to be uniting us as a team.
2. Summer Beach Project recruitment - this year there will be over 10x as many students participating in the SBP from UNCC as last year. Pray that students would make godly decisions with how to spend their summers.
3. Our personal support - we are currently in need of just over $700/month or $8500/year to be at 100%. Pray for God's provision over our financial needs (Psalm 24:1)..
