The Public Health Christian Fellowship at JHSPH

Dear Public Health Christian Fellowship, Count it all joy, my brothers, when you meet trials of various kinds, for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness.

Dear ones, praying that you hold onto the Lord who is Peace (Judges 6:24) that you remember that  the joy of the Lord is [your] strength  (Neh 8:10). Whether you are taking your epi exam tomorrow (MPH students) or figuring out what school/housing/research/ labwork/practicum/analysis/ writing is going to look like this fall, praying that your feet remain firmly planted on the Rock of your salvation who never leaves and never forsakes.

Dear Public Health Christian Fellowship, Psalm 145:13 says,  Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and your dominion endures throughout all generations. The LORD is faithful in all his words and kind in all his works.  Sometimes there are weeks like this one where so much is going on - in the world, in the government, at work, at home; for yourself and for others - that we are reminded that we are not in control. And this drives us to our knees to say, Lord help, and Lord let your will be done. Dear ones, praying in the midst of much tumult/uncertainty - about COVID, school reopenings, visa statuses, shifting work/research/event plans - that you hold onto the One who is our good, good father who knows what we need, even before we ask.
