Third Sunday of Lent (Prayer)

February 28, 2016 by ESN Announce No Comments

HeQi_018-largeAs Lent continues, ESN will share collects from The Book of Common Prayer and prayer requests. Scholar’s Compass will continue, but will appear on weekdays instead of Sundays.

Stir up thy power, O Lord, and with great might come
among us; and, because we are sorely hindered by our sins,
let thy bountiful grace and mercy speedily help and deliver
us; through Jesus Christ our Lord, to whom, with thee and
the Holy Ghost, be honor and glory, world without end.
Amen.*

Prayer requests for the week:

  • Pray for God to come among all our communities, whether at work or home or play.
  • Pray for God’s bountiful grace and mercy to be near us when we are conscious of our sins and troubles.
  • Pray for a strong sense of the Holy Spirit’s presence this Lent.

The Emerging Scholars Network is always seeking opportunities to identify, encourage, and equip the next generation of Christian scholars to be a redeeming influence in the academy, church, and the world. As you have an announcement, a "call for papers", an event, a prayer request (e.g., campus, field, higher ed), a resource suggestion, a review, etc., which is in concord with our Kingdom of God endeavor, please send materials (marketing/sales material not accepted) for consideration to post via email or the ESN Writer Survey. Thank-you. To God be the glory!

About Us

The Emerging Scholars Network (ESN) is a national network within InterVarsity’s Graduate & Faculty Ministries which supports those on the academic pathway as they work out how their academic vocation serves God and others. We encourage and equip undergraduates, graduate students, postdocs, and early career faculty as they navigate each stage of their academic vocation and transition to the next step in or beyond the academy.
