How to Pray for RVA

Think of a typical family of four and the prayer needs they might have.... multiply that by 150 and you have an idea of how to pray for RVA! (with a few special additions). We have about 500 students and over 100 staff living together on the RVA campus and immediate community. Each of these students has a family - some living in the community as staff and others in about 20 different nations. The following groups of topics cover many general areas of need.
