DAY 4: KEEPING HOPE ALIVE; FINDING PEACE AND SHARING KINDNESS
Devotion By: Winelle Kirton-Roberts, Moravian Church Pastor in French-speaking Switzerland

BIBLICAL INSPIRATION: Genesis 16:7,8, 13a, b.
“The angel of the Lord found Hagar beside a spring of water in the wilderness along the road to Shur. The angel said to her, “Hagar, Sarai’s servant, where have you come from, and where are you going?”… Thereafter, Hagar used another name to refer to the LORD who had spoken to her. She said, “you are the God who sees me!”

QUESTIONS FOR REFLECTION
• What are the ways to connect with international students to facilitate conversations on fear, disappointment, and neglect?
• How might the thought of Psalm 91: 11-12 be shared with international students?
• Is there an opportunity to be strengthened in faith during this season?”
