Prayer Calendar
From time to time we will update our prayer calendar and also feature specific requests where applicable. In the meantime, it would be great if you could consider the pointers below. Remember, if you have a prayer request for either yourself or your school, please contact the CST office.
Each day, please pray for each other, our local communities, and our nation.
Sunday
Pray for all CST schools as they settle into the new term and face the ongoing challenges with the added VAT and removal the business rates relief. The VAT case appeal is scheduled to be heard in the Court of Appeal from Tuesday 20th to Wednesday 21st January 2026 at the Royal Courts of Justice, London. Pray that the appeal would highlight the burden this policy places on the most vulnerable – families on modest incomes, those with SEND children, and military families – helping preserve their right to choose a Christ-centred education.
Monday
There are some CST schools who are fundraising for building projects. All schools need more pupils and staff plus finances. Please pray that all theses needs and challenges are met and supplied.

Prayer is needed for all school Head Teachers and staff as they continually make sacrifices to provide Christian education. Pray for all who are in Christian education and Christian educators across the world. These faithful servants are so grateful for your prayers.
