The CU in our school was not a very lively one, so with the encouragement of a new Christian PE teacher, a few of us decided to get together once a week to pray.
Each Tuesday we met at 8.30 am for 15 minutes; the focus of our prayers was the conversion of our friends, whom we prayed for by name.
To our surprise (shame on us!) we began to look forward to these prayer times so much that we met on Thursdays too; after a while it became every day. As well as drawing us close together as a group, the most exciting aspect was that our prayers were being answered beyond what we could ask or think!
