Praying scripturally for our college students is the most important weapon we can wield on their behalf, "for the Word of God is living and powerful and sharper than any two edged sword". Hebrews 4:12a.

- A way to encourage a college student could be through a care package.
Instructors/professors and administrators
Consider asking your students for the names of their instructors/professors along with the President of the college, so you can specifically pray for one each week, by name.
If you are interested, pray for additional instructors/professors. Go to the web page of your child’s college/university to get their names. If they are not listed, you can pray for instructors in a more general way such as, college of business instructors, college of education instructors, etc.
If not able to get the names of the administration consider praying for President’s staff, college recruiters, Board of Regents, etc.
Consider praying for the salvation of all the students on campus
If you are interested, a way to find names is through a student campus directory or online directory. If that is unavailable pray for students in a more general way such as, college of business students, college of education students, international students, etc. or by their living situation; dorms, off-campus, Greek houses, married housing, etc.
