Hello Prayer Partners,
This has been a pretty big month for the Christian Union faculty here in Hanover. The Albanese family welcomed a new beautiful baby girl named Hazel Rebecca Albanese. She arrived on September 25th at 3:22am and is doing very well. In addition to this, Ministry Fellow, Kristen Ottaviano, was engaged to be married to Dominic Sylvester on September 30th! Also, Chase and I are happy to announce that we are expecting our own little bundle of joy in April! Exciting times for our team here and we would cherish your prayers for all the wonderful gifts and changes to life that are happening.
One place where we would love for you to pray is for all the students who are either non-believers or new believers. The Lord has brought us many students that fit this description into our newest class of freshmen (‘20s).
Looking forward, as we near the end of the Fall term, the last large event here at Dartmouth is our annual Thanksgiving dinner. This event as many of you know can often be the biggest event of the year. It is a great opportunity for our students to reach out to others to come share a meal and hear the gospel from other students. It is completely planned by our freshman class with the assistance of our Exec team.
Last of all, we as staff would love to take a second to give a shout out to the Executive team of our ministry and various students leaders. Our Exec team has been working tirelessly to see this ministry thrive on top of all the demands of their senior year here at Dartmouth. Jake, Emma, Elaine, and Redal have shown tremendous dedication and desire for the Christian community and witness to thrive. Please pray for the Lord to refresh, replenish, and give them rest in Him. They have been doing an incredible job. Please join us as staff as we praise God for the provision of their leadership in petitioning Him to bless them with a deep abiding sense of His presence and renewal.
Thank you,
Julia Carlisle
Christian Union Ministry Fellow
