JOINING GOD AT WORK
Explore this page to learn how you can join God at work locally and around the world this year!
PRAY
The mission of reaching the nations and those across the street with the Gospel is urgent. We can participate in the daily activities of church planters, missionaries, and our own personal sharing with our ones through fervent prayer.
Matthew 9 shows us the importance of praying...
Then He said to His disciples, “The harvest is abundant, but the workers are few. Therefore, pray to the Lord of the harvest to send out workers into His harvest.” -Matthew 9:37-38
- Pray that those who share will do so in clear and understandable ways.
- Pray for opportunities for children to hear about Jesus. Ask the Father to protect them from harm and unhealthy environments.
- Pray for house churches around the world to be established and for unity, vision and willingness to “be” church for one another.
- Pray for the families of church planters across North America.
- Pray for your One
