Naturally, during a global pandemic, the idea of leaving home and travelling abroad may cause stress and anxiety. Yet, hundreds of thousands of international students will arrive in the UK and Ireland this month to begin studying at university.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

The predicted 50% drop in students studying abroad in the UK, due to Covid-19, has not yet materialised \u2013 with Scotland reportedly seeing an increase in international students! <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

Now is the time to be aware of international students in our midst. Friends International (FI), a close ministry partner of IFES Europe and UCCF Great Britain, is finding that many of these students have more concerns about studying overseas this year. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

Students from China coming to Southampton University shared their feelings with FI staff:  <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

\u201cWill people discriminate against me because of what people are calling the \u2018Chinese Coronavirus\u2019?\u201d <\/em>Another said: \u201cI\u2019m nervous about coming on my own to another country; will I be able to communicate with people as I\u2019m not confident in English?\u201d<\/em> <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

Some of these are common concerns for any student studying abroad, yet Covid-19 is bringing increasing uncertainty and universities are having to make significant changes. \u00adMinistry needs among international students are especially intense this year because of the added isolation of social distancing conditions\u2014and those conditions make it especially challenging for ministries to connect with these students. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

A student from France, studying at Cardiff University, shared how their university was changing:  <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

\u201cThe usual start date for our courses has been postponed. The earliest induction date will not be until late October. They will also change the teaching experience: it will be mostly online and small-group teaching. I would say that the uni experience will certainly be different, but all those thorough implementations aim to ensure the safety of everyone. After all, better safe than sorry.\u201d<\/em> <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

Please pray this week: <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n
  • For international students arriving in their study destinations this month\u2014in the UK and many other countries.  Pray that they would manage the changes well and not be overwhelmed. <\/li><\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n
    \n
    • For local churches and Christians to make every effort to welcome the new students and to connect with them even if that is online. <\/li><\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n
      \n
      • For FI staff and Christian students who are offering friendship and faith to these students. Pray that the hospitality schemes, English language classes and Bible studies would all help integrate the students while moving them closer to a saving faith. <\/li><\/ul>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"featured_media":13409,"template":"","area":[458,566],"theme":[],"class_list":["post-13411","prayerline","type-prayerline","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","area-europe","area-united-kingdom"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nLejos de casa en pandemia · IFES Prayerline<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"NOTA DEL EDITOR: Publicamos incorrectamente una versi\u00f3n anterior de este art\u00edculo en la que no incorporamos de manera completa y correcta la informaci\u00f3n\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/ifesworld.org\/en\/prayerline\/far-from-home-in-a-pandemic\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"es_ES\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Lejos de casa en pandemia · IFES Prayerline\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"NOTA DEL EDITOR: Publicamos incorrectamente una versi\u00f3n anterior de este art\u00edculo en la que no incorporamos de manera completa y correcta la informaci\u00f3n\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/ifesworld.org\/en\/prayerline\/far-from-home-in-a-pandemic\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"IFES\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/ifesworld.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Friends-International-Student-Ministry-1024x576.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"1024\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"576\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Tiempo de lectura\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"3 minutos\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/ifesworld.org\/en\/prayerline\/far-from-home-in-a-pandemic\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/ifesworld.org\/en\/prayerline\/far-from-home-in-a-pandemic\/\",\"name\":\"Lejos de casa en pandemia · IFES Prayerline\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/ifesworld.org\/es\/#website\"},\"primaryImageOfPage\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/ifesworld.org\/en\/prayerline\/far-from-home-in-a-pandemic\/#primaryimage\"},\"image\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/ifesworld.org\/en\/prayerline\/far-from-home-in-a-pandemic\/#primaryimage\"},\"thumbnailUrl\":\"https:\/\/ifesworld.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Friends-International-Student-Ministry.jpg\",\"datePublished\":\"2020-09-22T04:30:00+00:00\",\"description\":\"NOTA DEL EDITOR: Publicamos incorrectamente una versi\u00f3n anterior de este art\u00edculo en la que no incorporamos de manera completa y correcta la informaci\u00f3n\",\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/ifesworld.org\/en\/prayerline\/far-from-home-in-a-pandemic\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"es\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/ifesworld.org\/en\/prayerline\/far-from-home-in-a-pandemic\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"ImageObject\",\"inLanguage\":\"es\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/ifesworld.org\/en\/prayerline\/far-from-home-in-a-pandemic\/#primaryimage\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/ifesworld.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Friends-International-Student-Ministry.jpg\",\"contentUrl\":\"https:\/\/ifesworld.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Friends-International-Student-Ministry.jpg\",\"width\":2400,\"height\":1350},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/ifesworld.org\/en\/prayerline\/far-from-home-in-a-pandemic\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\/\/ifesworld.org\/es\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"Prayerline\",\"item\":\"https:\/\/ifesworld.org\/en\/prayerline\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":3,\"name\":\"Lejos de casa en pandemia\"}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/ifesworld.org\/es\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/ifesworld.org\/es\/\",\"name\":\"IFES\",\"description\":\"A movement of students sharing and living out the good news of Jesus Christ.
