I am thrilled to introduce myself as the new ministry director of CU Caritas at Stanford. My name is Marcus Preciado, and I am elated to have joined this incredible team and community. It has been a wonderful experience to be on campus this past month, engaging and connecting with the CU students. Witnessing their love and devotion to Christ has been truly inspiring. I can already see the Lord's mighty hand moving within the ministry.
I have had the privilege of joining the students in prayer, devotionals, and fasting. I have especially enjoyed attending Venture, our Leadership Lecture Series. It is quite encouraging to see so many students committed to growing as Christian leaders, choosing to spend their Friday nights worshiping and seeking the Lord.
We were recently blessed to have Pastor Kaloma Smith deliver an impactful lesson on the importance and power of intercessory prayer (Acts 12:1-19). I was encouraged to see all of the students immediately respond and apply the message by breaking up into groups and praying for one another as they prepared for finals and spring break.
Please pray for the following:
- Our students will grow deeper in their relationship with Christ through prayer, fasting and studying His word.
- God raises up more student leaders who will share the gospel with boldness to their peers on campus.
- God will provide an opportunity to have an evangelistic event in May on Stanford’s campus.
- For revival on the campus amongst the faculty and students.
I am excited to continue building relationships with the CU students and supporting their spiritual growth and leadership development. Together, we will seek to deepen our connection with Christ and expand His kingdom on campus.
Thank you for your faithful and continued support of CU Caritas. I look forward to sharing more updates with you in the weeks ahead.
In Christ,
Marcus Preciado
