Fourth Sunday of Lent (Prayer)

March 6, 2016 by ESN Announce Leave a Comment

Bread of LIfeAs 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.

Collect for the Fourth Sunday in Lent,  Book of Common Prayer  

Gracious Father, whose blessed Son Jesus Christ came down
from heaven to be the true bread which giveth life to the
world: Evermore give us this bread, that he may live in us,
and we in him; who liveth and reigneth with thee and the
Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever. Amen.*

Prayer request for the week:

  • Pray for  me and my fellow graduate students on my campus dealing with research blues, or environmentally induced depression. — Prayer request shared at Urbana Student Missions Conference during ESN’s seminar.
    • Inspired by this request,  let us in addition join together in praying for healing for graduate students across the nation, the creation. Furthermore, let us pray for God’s presence through his Word, Spirit, people, and creation to be unmistakeable not only this week, but also through the labors/years to come. To God be the glory!

ESN Announce

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.
