Over the last several years, we have seen an increase in discrimination against people of faith on college campuses. Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF) has fought alongside individuals like Chike Uzuegbunam and Jack Denton to preserve our fundamental right to freedom of religion. These two men stood strong with the help of God and ADF when their universities attempted to silence their faith. Despite these constant threats, one organization called Collegiate Day of Prayer continues to fight these spiritual battles with prayer for college campuses and the students who are in need of a Savior.Collegiate Day of Prayer, recognized on February 24 this year, serves to see students on college campuses surrender their lives to Jesus and encourages believers to link arms with one another in united prayer to see God’s will be done. Whether you are a college graduate, currently have a family member attending college, or you work in the marketplace, your prayers are needed!With the Collegiate Day of Prayer standing a few weeks out, the Generational Wins Prayer Initiative Team encourages you to participate in praying for college campuses and students across America. We encourage you to adopt a campus and pray for them on Collegiate Day of Prayer (Adopt a campus in prayer).

Locally, in  Pennsylvania/South Jersey, there are approximately 750,000 students on about 225 campuses, one of the largest student populations in the nation.  Currently, the BRN has about 15 vocational campus ministers serving across the region on 13 campuses, accompanied by a number of short-term workers, plus a number of churches that are reaching out to the campuses within their context.

Here is how you can pray:

Judicial

Pray for ADF’s Center for Academic Freedom Team as they fight to preserve freedom’s future by representing students and faculty who are willing to stand for religious freedom.

Legislative

Pray that state and federal legislatures would respect the rights offered by the Constitution and vote in favor for students of faith.

Culture

Pray that colleges across the country would honor students’ freedom of speech and religion regardless of their faith.

Church

Pray that the Church would cover college campuses and students with prayer, that we might see revival spread across universities in America. Pray with Chike and Jack, that others would join them in resisting encroachments on these freedoms.


What is a Generational Win?
