Last Thursday (9th Oct), we were treated to a special LM - A Walk To Remember. We had to take a walk around the campus to remember and pray for the needs of the campus. It being my very first prayer walk, I was a little clueless at first but nonetheless, excited (:

After a time of worship, we set off for our prayer walk. We were given seeds (green beans!) and were told to ‘sow’ the seeds as we pray along the way.

The act of praying for the campus and ‘sowing’ those seeds reminded me of the verse from 1 Corinthians 6. It is our responsibility to sow the seed (I planted the seed) of Christ into the hearts of the lost, and commit them in prayer to God (but God made it grow).  

We also took some time to pray for the law and music faculty. At the station dedicated to them, we had an interesting session whereby we shot plastic arrows in their respective directions. It served as a reminder that we should persevere in praying for them and the people God has placed around us.

This prayer walk helped me to see the needs of our campus through God’s eyes.  Many people whom we come into contact with everyday are still lost. May our presence in NUS be purposeful as we go forth and reach out to the lost! (:

Through His love our hearts can feel 

All the grief they bear.

They must hear the Words of Life

Only we can share.

In Him,                                                                                                                                                               Shermaine

Date: 9 October 2008 (Thursday)

Time: 6.00pm – 8.15pm

Venue: Crusade Corner

Dress Code: Anything comfortable, white bottoms are quite a no-no and for the girls, try to avoid skirts.

This week’s LM promises to be something different. In light of Harvest week, it will be an exciting time of praying for the ground that we see as our mission field – NUS and hearing from the Lord about the needs of those on campus. Come join us for this extraordinary Life Meeting that will be “a walk to remember”!

4th September 2008 marked the very first prayer-focused LM of the semester! We hope that it was a memorable experience for all Crusaders who attended. It was definitely an exciting time of fellowship and of learning more about prayer through a time of fun and games!

After each station game, some time was given for Crusaders to reflect and pray for themselves, for one another, as well as for the ministry as a whole. It was indeed a refreshing time of laying aside our burdens and just coming before the Lord through a time of prayer at the end of a hectic day in school.

All in all, the take-home message is for Crusaders to remember to make prayer part and parcel of their everyday life. We hope that this LM would serve as a spark for every Crusader; that each and every one of us will be excited to start a prayer movement in our own lives, and experience a breakthrough in the process!
