Prayer for Week of July 21

Beloved Father,
Be with students and faculty from EST who are working in summer ministries, including camps for youth, children, and women and churches; Vacation Bible School clubs; community outreach and other missions. We pray you will also be with the seven youth from the Evangelical-Reformed Church in Poland as they visit the United States July 13-August 11. May the work of all of these groups be sacred, their energies unbounded, and the lives of those they touch be forever changed. May those of us in the United States seek to emulate such a spirit of service.

Lord God,
Be with the women from the United States and the women from Poland who are participating in the annual Women's Camp in the mountains of Poland from July 18-25. We pray for the health of the campers and their families. Provide the women with the renewed strength, faith, and courage to live as women believing in You and reflecting You around them. As the polish women learn English, fill their hearts with the Scripture taught them that knows no language but Yours.
