I always enjoy the Worldwide Day of Prayer at EAST.
Imagine a whole day of no classes, homework, or lectures.
Just concerted and humble praying together, in twos and threes and as a body, asking God for breakthroughs.
My favorite part was when eleven students, one lecturer, and a visitor who just came in from Padang, Indonesia, stood up to ask for prayer for their countries - in all thirteen of them.
Some shared about pressing needs, e.g., the coming Myanmar elections, the persecutions of Christians in India.
Some, like Tunji from Nigeria, asked for "true revivals" that will bring about "real change" in their countries.
Others, like Chee Yuen who represented Singapore (and who asked that Singlish would never be erased!) and Gab Su from Korea requested that people and resources would continue to be raised from their nations for the global harvest.
Amen. Amen. And amen (including the Singlish one)!
