April 16, 2011 – Montemorelos, Nuevo Leon, Mexico…Benjamin Garcia/IAD
Montemorelos University, an Adventist institution in Mexico operated by the Inter-American Division (IAD), celebrated a day of prayer, praise and gratitude on April 6. The special day, which took place in the midst of a three-week prayer campaign, was part of the territory-wide Constant in Prayer initiative, a spiritual revival and reformation emphasis going on now in the IAD.
Students, faculty, staff, community leaders and visitors gathered at the university’s church early in the morning to worship and pray for spiritual revival and for Adventist Education.
Pr. Zeferino Luna, president of the church in the Northeast region located in Monterrey, spoke to more than 500 gathered on the importance of personal revival and held a session of prayer for students and the Christian mission which drives Adventist educational schools and institutions.
Dozens of decals were posted in offices and classrooms throughout the campus commemorating Constant in Prayer. Students and teachers gathered throughout the campus, under trees, in classrooms, and in offices to pray at designated areas for special requests, Adventist education and schools across the territory.
Dr. Elie Honore, Adventist Health International Services for Inter-America, traveled to the university and spoke on the significance of a spiritual prayer revival in the lives of students and teachers at the hundreds of educational institutions throughout Mexico and throughout Inter-America.
