Pray Where You Are!

We invite parents to pray through a variety of topics, including: campus safety, spiritual protection and salvation of students, spiritual growth of students, career choices and academic majors, calling of students to full-time ministry and missions, student finances, health concerns, student evangelism/outreach, and prayers for staff/faculty/administration.
 
Wherever you are, you can be praying for CBU! When you subscribe to the monthly
parent newsletter there will be topics to focus and pray about each month!

You can also email your prayer requests to parentspraying@calbaptist.edu.
