I was thinking of live-blogging the prayer time, if I am the only one here.
So right now I will log off and pray.
-edit-
Its almost 5:30, had about two people come to pray and right now I am checking my prayer lists online. Our speaker's story is here.
Dear Father,
Praying for the speaker, please use him to speak your message. For the lost folks, help them to find you! Father help our churches to work together. Pray for courage and wisdom for all the 'counselors'. Praying for our Pastors and ministers.
From "Radical" by D. Platt
Prayer is not flashy and prob. doesn't even seem radical, but consider church history. Just a century ago the prayers of one man, Evan Roberts (1878-1951), precipitated a revival in Wales in which an estimated hundred thousand people came to faith in Christ in a matter of months. The effect reached far beyond Wales, though. A global movement began among the people of God, and ordinary Christians began scattering to the nations.
Prayer can lead to effects far beyond what we can imagine. ("Radical", p. 190)
One of the youth was shocked at all the people. Oh the wonders of our Lord calling His People. It is very encouraging to see and experience!
Gotta TWEET this and FB.
Currently 5:34-Closing Prayer!
About 20-30 people getting counseled...they are busting out their counselor's cards and 4 Spiritual Laws...
I think they are going to bring people to the Youth Room because the counseling room is full!
Updates to come!
7:17 p.m. The 2nd service has begun. Between services we had hundreds sitting around our campus eating, it reminded me of Jesus feeding the crowds...only we use styrofoam containers, plastic forks and disposable chopsticks.
I think over 30 people stepped forward to make decisions concerning Christ. Will he be the Lord of their lives?
11:00 p.m. The meeting ended around 9:00, more people stepped forward...not saying that walking an aisle saves you , nor does praying a prayer save you.
Afterwards folks took pictures...many folks worked behind the scenes and we prayed for all by name - from the Pastor to Jim who wore his coveralls to cleanup...Tonight I prayed with Karyna, Dennis K from PCBC...and Eric. Thanks guys and gal!
Oh...our nursery was swamped! Over 100 kids! Good job nursery workers, coordinated by our Children's Minister-R.K.
One more session tomorrow morning.
