Prayer Please!

Hello faithful friends and brothers and sisters in Christ. Sorry this isn't an appealing newsletter format type thing:) I've been meaning to get one of those out forever, but I didn't want to miss this opportunity to get all the prayers possible lifted up to the Father for our RFIS school retreats. This year I'll be going with the high school instead of the middle school because I'm the 12th grade class advisor and am so close to so many of the seniors.
The stated goals of our retreats:
1. That students will grow spiritually
2. That we grow in our relationships with one another 3. That students learn new things in a non academic setting

Retreats go from Monday to Thursday this coming week. The high school retreat will be held at our new school site with students and staff staying overnight, while middle school is just during the day on our current campus.
There will be sessions with Bible teaching, worship and small group discussion as well as community service opportunities, free time to relax with friends, and other planned games and activities. This is a great opportunity for students to grow close to the Lord, or for some, to commit their lives to Him for the first time.
Please pray:
-for God's annointing and words on the lips of the speaker, worship leader and staff leading small group sessions (including me!) -for many edifying conversations (between staff and students or students with other students) -for logistics (water and electricity to stay on, safe travel and other little details) -for a spirit of unity and love among all -for health and safety -that those students who don't yet know the Lord will commit their lives to Him -for the Holy Spirit to move in the hearts of His own, meeting each of us where we're at and bringing us close to Him Thanks so much! I promise to send a report with pictures and amazing testimonies of what God has done.
In His love,
Liz
