Mar 26, 2014 | Events, Prayer
In response to last week’s message (listen here), we’re going to pray like crazy this Saturday. Come ready to walk some laps around the neighborhood, and pray for our neighbors. I’ll have maps and great suggestions about how to pray ready to guide you. Together, we’ll encircle our neighbors with prayer.
Find more details on our calendar here: Prayer Walk
“If you’ll join me in praying like this, hold onto your socks. The early Christians devoted themselves to prayer, and God moved powerfully among them,” says Chris Travis.
Mar 25, 2014 | Community Impact, Everyday Kidz, Prayer
For most of us, this time of year means the hope of warm weather and baseball season coming soon. But for thousands of NYC students and teachers, it’s time for the stress of State Testing. The pressure for both students and teachers builds each year. Now, school funding, teachers’ jobs, and middle school and high school acceptance for students all are effected by the performance of kids in 3rd through 8th grades. Please pray for students and teachers this week as they prepare for the first week of testing on April 1-3.
Mar 19, 2014 | Everyday Groups, Prayer
There is a dream in the back of our minds that goes something like this: everything really important to Everyday Church has an Everyday Group as its champion.
We currently have four groups championing four critical things (and a fifth in the works)…
* Everyday Family Group: caring for parents and kids
* Everyday Youth Group: mentoring middle school & high school students
* Everyday Creativity Group: activating the creativity of God’s people
* Everyday Neighbors Group: serving our neighbors
* Everyday ??? Group: this up and coming group focuses on prayer and friendship among guys
We are just scratching the surface of the things God wants us to champion in this community and around the world. Here are some other groups we’re dreaming of…
* Global Outreach: leading Everyday Church in the global impact of our ministry
* Spanish: leading our church in cultural diversity, particularly Spanish speaking cultures
* Prayer: making prayer a deep and integral part of Everyday Church life
* Adventure: connecting city people with the beauty of nature and gift of adventure
* I’m sure you have other possible groups in mind
Please pray for our current groups, future groups, our group leaders. Don’t be bashful. Ask God to do big things!
