PRAYER CHALLENGE: School Issues

In July & August we will be addressing one topic a day that affects schools in our region. These will be informational and include a prayer podcast. We also will be campaigning to match every school in the county with a committed prayer partner.

Pray for the top issues, schools currently face in the upcoming 2023-24 school year

Please e-mail us at sbcuniteandawake@gmail.com if you would like to commit to praying for a school. Include the school name/city where it's located. An updated web page will post what schools have a committed prayer partner and what's left. [If you notice a school is not listed, please e-mail us their information, along with their website.]
