Nightly Prayer

So, last year a senior started this nightly prayer group. A few people, about 5 or 6, would get together every night at midnight to pray for a while. It was an amazing ministry when it started because it just continued to skyrocket. True, we never had more than like 10 people in a night, but that was okay because those people that came grew visibly closer to God.

And then this year started. Granted, the beginning to the school year is always harsh on students, but it seems like this one has been particularly draining. A total of four people have made it to nightly prayer, which is bouncing back and forth between midnight and 11pm. Only two of us have been making it consistently. The good news is that God said "wherever two or three are gathered in my name, I will be among them." So, even though this year has been off to a rocky start, we know that God still hears us and still listens, and will grow this ministry when the time is right.
