Serving with Cru, Campus Crusade for Christ International.

I am Sarah Powell and I am on staff in Newport News, Virginia and work primarily at Christopher Newport University. I am passionate about seeing lost students find hope and freedom in the gospel. In particular, CNU is a launching pad for many future leaders, doctors, politicians and business people. One of my greatest desires is to see God shift the course of students' lives as they learn what it looks like to be Christ-centered laborers, whether in their profession or in their community. It is a great privilege to equip students to share the living hope I have found in Jesus with those who know him and those who don't. 

PRAY
  • Pray for our summer, as we recharge after a full and busy school year. We are praying God would refresh us in the gospel and in our marriage.
  • Pray for us to be obedient and faithful to what God's leading us in for ministry on campus and in our community.
  • Pray for students as they head home for summer break! Some are working jobs, others are at home, some are going overseas - ALL are sent by God into the world! We are praying that they would grow in their relationship with Him, get connected to other local believers and be a light in dark places.
