Calling all members of the ACC! The time is coming upon us for the National Elder Meeting for the Eastern conference. As usual, there’s a prayer and fasting schedule if you’d like to participate. Tom and Lilly Shurance organize it every meeting. From their email:
If you would like to sign up for a 1/2 hour prayer slot, you can do so by e-mailing us at TOMANDLILLY@WADSNET.COM. When you e-mail us, we will reply to your e-mail to confirm your time. (If you do not receive a reply e-mail from us, please e-mail us again!) If you are in a different time zone, please designate which time zone you are referring to.
We will be displaying the names of those who have committed to pray at the following website: http://www.xanga.com/tomandlilly
All of us have concerns about our churches. The Bible tells us there is much power in prayer (Matthew 21:22) and especially in corporate prayer (Matthew 18:19-20). We encourage you to get together in groups to pray for the future of our church. Also consider fasting during part of this time as a way of expressing that you are serious about these issues. We will not be telling anyone how to pray or what to pray for. Ask the Lord to examine your own heart and to direct you in this endeavor. Search the scripture for what it says about prayer and fasting and put that into practice. Those who have participated in this event in the past have been truly blessed as they spent time interceding for the church and its leadership. Remember, prayer is a discipline and a sacrifice. Your church is worth your time and effort!
James 5:16 Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.
Jeremiah 33:3 Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things which thou knowest not.
