The first Sunday of each month we gather to pray for our missionaries and projects around the world. We meet at 8:30 a.m. in PCPC's Parlor. Your next opportunity to join us is May 4, 2008.
God is a work in a mighty way, and He chooses to use our prayers for the advancement of His kingdom. Here are some other ways to pray for the world. Visit Operation World’s website to learn how to pray for the countries around the world.
“I want to pray, but what does that actually look like?” For some reason, even as Christians and among Christians, praying takes boldness, confidence, and intentionality. Below are some practical ideas to help provide opportunity and encouragement to pray.
Make a Plan. How do you want to focus your prayers?
Who’s praying?
How do you want to?
In Groups. Who’s facilitating? How about you? Whoever it is will find it helpful to come to the meeting with a game plan. Will you pray all together? Who will open the prayer? Who will close the prayer? Will everybody pray? Will you break into small groups? How will you divide the groups?
There are plenty of methods and expressions of prayer, but these are some ideas to help you in case you need help to start, your current method is missing something, or you want to try something new. The point is to pray. If you are leading a group, pay attention to your group. Pray for the Lord to teach you how to pray. Have patience with different approaches, because sometimes the “success” and “failure” results from newness and lack of familiarity.
