Some of our second-year students will be heading out on their ministry practicum placements over the coming weeks. Please join us in praying for safe travels overseas, meaningful relationships, and opportunities to serve well. Pray also that God would speak clearly to them and continue to shape and confirm His calling on their lives.

Date: Aug 31, 2026
Time: 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm
Location: Online

Are you drawn to serving in mission, but feel like there are too many obstacles standing in the way? Perhaps they’re mental hurdles, such as assumptions about who you need to be before you’re ready. Or maybe they’re practical challenges like career commitments, family expectations, finances, feelings of inadequacy, or not knowing the Bible as well as you’d like. You aren’t alone!

Join us in our online workshop and hear how others have overcome these hurdles. Engage with ways you can step into mission right now and challenge your assumptions of how you must be. Whether you are thinking about serving overseas or here in NZ you will be encouraged to journey with others and learn from experienced mission leaders.

We paused our usual activities to worship, listen to testimonies, and pray that God, would touch our broken world.

We went to war in prayer for the nations, standing in faith and interceding for those in need. College Prayer Day was a great reminder to put on the full armor of God, stand firm, and pray without ceasing.

Lord, increase our passion and fervency for prayer.
Thank You for hearing and answering our prayers.

The SEND nights! https://www.thesend.org.nz/
Eastwest College is partnering with 'The SEND New Zealand'.
Three events are coming up!
Check the SEND website above for more details.

Send Nights exist to regionally gather youth and young adults and see our generation activated into our missional and evangelistic calling. To make Jesus known in our schools, workplaces, universities, neighbourhoods, and communities.
Our hope is not simply to host events, but to see lives transformed as people respond to God's call and live out the Great Commission wherever He has placed them.

All send nights are completely free and no registration is needed. So invite your mates and church and we'll see you there.

it's time to go New Zealand!
