Stand in the gap for NGU students, faculty, and administration by joining NGU parents in monthly prayer. Our desire is to encourage, support, and gain strength from other parents as we spend time talking with God about the needs of the students, faculty, and administration; unite with other parents to pray; specifically for special requests; and gain peace of mind in knowing your students is blessed with prayer.
The monthly prayer focus for September is “change.”
Pray for the changes in our children’s lives, the changes in our own lives and in the new circumstances we all will face. Each college year brings new classes, new professors, new friends, a new home, new emptiness and new growth.
Pray for the clutter in each student’s life and that each will prioritize, organize and use time wisely as change is taking place daily.
