Prayer Laborers,

This month please pray by organization dimension for the Courage Youth ministry. Thank you for interceding on behalf of Courage Youth staff, schools and, most importantly, Courage Youth learners. 

~ Courage Youth Lead Team, Life Coaches & Management Committee

Lead Team

Praise.  Lord, thank you because this vision began with you.  Thank you for 20 years of your amazing grace and mercy. Thank you for the donors who have sown into this vision. Thank you for the lives that are already being impacted across our current sites. Thank you for the faithfulness of Life Coaches. We praise you because this work is Yours.  Psalm 24:1

Petition.  Lord, we commit the April Vision Trip visit into your hands.  Grant travel mercies.  Let the time here with our US visitors be meaningful, impactful, and Spirit-led.  Let our visitors not only hear reports but feel the heartbeat of the mission. Above all else, may your purpose be established through this visit. 

Holy Spirit of the living God, we also bring our plans to expand to new schools to you, may we not expand prematurely, but with strategy and wisdom.  May our footprint come with depth and not just numbers. Let every new site carry the same integrity, culture and transformation. In Jesus Mighty Name. 

Life Coaches

Praise.  Lord, thank you for entrusting us (making us co-labourers) with the hearts and journies of young people. Holy Spirit of the living God, you are the ultimate teacher, counsellor, and Shepherd.  Thank you for the privilege of partnering with you in shaping the lives of young people. We acknowledge that transformation belongs to you. Proverbs 16:3

Petition.  Holy Spirit of the living God, let every learner encounter not just lessons but transformation. Lord, grant us wisdom, patience, and discernment.  Strengthen us when we feel weary.  Unite us in love and respect. In Jesus Mighty Name.  James 1:5

Counselor/Social Worker

Praise.  Father God, by the power of the Holy Spirit, thank you for courage in leading the group grief counselling after the painful loss of a learner to suicide at Bona Comprehensive High School.  II Corinthians 1:3-4

Petition.  Lord, we ask for supernatural strength over our social worker as he carries the grief of a class.  Protect his heart from emotional overload.  Refill him as he pours out into others.  Father, increase his wisdom as individual counselling cases arise.  As he supports the Lofentse Girls High matric (Grade 112) group under pressure, grant him insight into their emotional, academic and social struggles. Let his words be healing, steady and life giving. In Jesus Mighty Name we pray.

Administration/Career Liftoff interest inventory (CLii)

Praise.  Lord, thank you for the schools that have agreed to assist in printing out learner Clii reports.  Bless their willingness and cooperation. We also bring before you the conversation with two companies regarding a purchase of a larger capacity copier.  Give us favour, wisdom, and the right terms.  Philippians. 4:19

Petition.  We declare in Jesus' mighty name, that every learner will complete Clii.  We declare in Jesus mighty name that Clii will bring clarity in Learner subject and career choices. We declare that provision for printing and equipment will come.  In Jesus Mighty Name.

Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be frightened, and 

do not be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.  Joshua 1:9
