“The greatest thing anyone can do for God and for man is to pray. You can do more than pray after you have prayer, but you cannot do more than pray until you have prayed. Prayer is striking the winning blow; service is gathering up the results.”
-S.D. Gordon
We would love to have you partner with us by praying for Cru at Virginia Tech, the students on this campus, and the things we are trusting God to accomplish here. We will try and keep this page updated with a few things that we desperately need prayer for, but we also send out a recurring letter with updates on how you can pray specifically. If you would like to receive those updates, you can sign up below.
What You Can Pray For Now
Last Updated: December 15, 2025
We opened a brand new international partnership in Brasilia, Brazil this year! We sent the first summer mission there Summer 2025 and the second summer mission is going Summer 2026. Additionally, Rebecca Lansford is leading a STINT Team there for the 2026-2027 academic year! Pray that God would continue to grow the partnership through the summer trips there and especially during Rebeccas STINT year there! Pray for laborers to be raised up over the coming weeks and months to go with Rebecca - specifically for more men to commit to going!
One of our strategic focuses on campus this year is multiplication - that students would understand what it means to multiply their faith as a follower of Jesus and that they would be active in doing that on campus! Pray for our students to have a 2 Timothy 2:2 mindset and that they would be missional in all areas of their lives! Pray students would be eager to multiply their faith, seeking to make disciples of Jesus!
