A special petition for College Student Sunday

Again we pray, for the hearts, the minds, and the lips of our college students, that they may receive the power of Your law and successfully comprehend the useful things which will be taught them, and so they will understand Your perfect will and contribute to the building up of Your Holy Church. Deliver them from every snare of the enemy, preserve them in the true faith in righteousness and purity all the days of their lives, that they may grow in wisdom and in the observance of Your commandments, and may be revealed as worshipers of Your name and heirs of Your Kingdom. Bless also their teachers, O Lord, bless the Orthodox Christian Fellowship, its chaplains, student leaders and beneficiaries; and may they always proclaim the word of Your truth.

  1. Orthodox Christian college students need to be extremely grateful to God for having the opportunity to attend a college or university -- especially in these difficult economic times.

    College students should attend church services each Sunday -- even if they are living on campus -- at an Orthodox Church to express their gratitude to God.
