In its nations. That&#8217;s why last month they launched a <a href=\"https:\/\/ifeseurope.typeform.com\/to\/dkvrGa\">40-week prayer initiative.<\/a> In the months leading up to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reviveeurope.org\/\">Revive<\/a>, the European student evangelism conference, students in 40 European countries are making short videos to fuel people&#8217;s prayers: What are the marks of their society today?
