In 2010, Boston Metro had a record 235 students attend their fall retreat, so they planned big for 2011. Apparently not big enough. With 300 students registered and not enough bed space, they've had to turn away would-be attendees this week. The University of New Hampshire retreat is packed as well, which means that for the students of Salem State University, there will be no fall retreat this year. Please pray for this fledgling ministry on a campus with no other evangelical presence in a city (Salem) known for witchcraft.
The plight of Salem State and others notwithstanding, all this adds up to a ton of buzz and excitement: this weekend alone (9/30-10/2), over 700 students are at fall retreats, away from their day-to-day routine, asking God to speak to them. We know from past experience that He will! Please pray with us for these students, who are all at different places on their spiritual journeys, to hear and respond to God this weekend.
