24 Hours of Prayer at PIU

We moved into October at PIU with 24 hours of prayer beginning with Friday's chapel at 11 AM and ending with a breakfast brunch from 10-11 on Saturday. Students, staff and faculty were invited to fast and pray for the day and come together for three large worship gatherings and for small prayer groups. The main focus of the October 1, 11 AM chapel was to focus on God's character and mighty acts of the past and come together to worship. That evening we joined together again to pray for God's direction for the school and to ask Him to provide the resources the school needs. Worship was focused on the prayers of scripture. Then the Saturday morning time was a focused prayer time to join together pray for the board, administration, staff, faculty and students. I enjoyed having the time to sit with students and staff just to pray for each other. It really is a blessing to be at PIU.
The program began in chapel with the staff leading worship.













We began the evening with prayer in a circle

Mike and Charles led us in worship music as faculty, staff and students prayed together.




Lisa and Stephanie join together with the rest of the students and staff to pray for direction for PIU.













For Saturday morning prayer we formed two circles and prayed for all the students, staff and board of PIU

Samantha did a great job coordinating the prayer time.








Joyce had to take a picture of Lucy with her Spiderman Chuukese skirt. I thought I should get in the picture too.
