Prayer Points

We have just celebrated Easter. Let us give thanks to God for His Son who chose the cross in order that our sins would be paid for. We are guaranteed forgiveness and everlasting life. Pray that there will be some who realise this fact for the first time this year and will be starting on a journey of faith.

Pray for the Executive Committee of the Christian Endeavour English Union and for the members as they meet for their AGM, that God’s will be at the centre of any decisions made.

Pray for World CE and the General Secretary, Dave Coryell (USA); President Rev’d Raffi Messerlian (Lebanon & Syria); Vice President for Europe, Harry H. Wedekind (Netherlands). Thank God for their commitment to our movement and desire to promote CE in so many countries.

Pray for societies across the world. Pray that God will strengthen and encourage all leaders as they seek

to bring young people to know him.

Pray for the Trustees of the CE Union of Great Britain and Ireland as they meet together on 14th

May and for the following AGM. Pray that there will be a good attendance for the AGM, both in person and

electronically. Sunday 19th is the day we celebrate the special anointing of the Holy Spirit on the disciples. What an

amazing change this made in the lives of those ordinary men. 

Pray that we too will be strengthened by God’s Spirit, that we will continue to serve our God and to be bold in speaking about Him to our families, friends and others that we meet. Pray for opportunities.

Thank God that we have the Bible in our own language, freely available and in many translations. We are also thankful for the vast choice of other Christian literature to help us understand more about God. Pray for Christians in countries where these books are scarce or even forbidden.

Thank God for the inspired writers of our own CE literature, available from this website. Thank God that these men and women have given their time to produce aids for CE leaders to run societies successfully over many years.

Pray for the managers of the Christian Endeavour Holiday Centres, Beechwood Court and The Pleasaunce as they serve God throughout the year by providing breaks for holidaymakers that are based on Christian values. Pray for the staff, some of whom may be volunteers, that they will work as a team to provide the best restful and friendly environment possible.

Thank God for all those who faithfully serve him by teaching and encouraging others in their faith. Pray for those in positions of authority in different children’s and young people’s groups. Pray for understanding and kindness in all their dealings with those for whom they have responsibility.

Pray for youth workers in Pennsylvania who recently received training from Josh Good, the Ministry Director of CE in USA. Pray that these delegates will be inspired to carry on their important work. There was more recent training when Brother Emmanuel from CE in Ghana reached out to students from the Ghana Muslim Mission Senior High School in Beposo, a rural community in the Ashanti Region. These Christian students live in a predominantly Muslim environment yet are spreading the message of Jesus, endeavouring to make a profound impact on their world.
