First, we invite you to join us in prayer on Sunday, Sept. 14, for A Day of Prayer for Olivet. This special day will mark the opening Sunday of fall revival services with our campus congregation at College Church University Avenue. We are asking every Olivet alumnus, friend and family member, along with every congregation across the Olivet field, to agree with us in prayer on this significant day. Please lift up our students, faculty and staff in prayer, asking that God will be with us in a wonderful way during these revival services and fall months. There is power when we unite our hearts and voices in prayer across distances and time zones.
Second, we encourage you to engage with the Wake-Up Call by Seedbed this fall. This global movement of spiritual awakening invites participants to “Come walk with Jesus — day by day, chapter by chapter — through the Gospels. This daily journey is shaped in Scripture, rooted in community, and alive with the Spirit’s work in us. Let’s wake up to His love together.” Many members of the Olivet family are already benefiting greatly from this transformative spiritual discipline. Whether you’re a student beginning your academic journey or an alumnus continuing your walk with Christ, this is an opportunity to deepen your faith alongside believers worldwide. More information can be found at seedbed.com.
Third, be watching for an exciting new feature called “Within These Halls” at Olivet.edu and on Olivet’s social media pages. This new initiative will highlight inspirational and life-changing messages from University chapel services and College Church, bringing the spiritual richness of our campus worship experiences to our extended community. Whether you’re unable to attend in person or simply want to revisit these powerful moments, “Within These Halls” will help you stay connected to the heart of spiritual life at Olivet.
These three invitations represent our commitment to encouraging the spiritual vitality that has always been at the center of the Olivet experience. We believe that prayer, engagement with Biblical texts and the truths of Christianity and shared worship are essential elements that bind us together as one community, regardless of where we are in the world.
Thank you for being part of the Olivet family. May this fall semester be marked by spiritual awakening and growth as well as a deeper walk with Christ for all of us.
