An Active Prayer Time | OMF
Prayer Point
Praise God for the continuing growth of the Church in China. But Chinese pastors are concerned that quantity does not always mean quality. Pray for the provision of Bible-based materials at every level – from children to university graduates.
An active prayer time to pray for different missionary needs.
Download the PDF documents for details on how to run the prayer time.
For: small groups of 14 -18 year olds.
Aim: to pray for the different needs that missionaries may when preparing for mission and working on the field.
Create five stations for each of the five categories of prayer and split the group into smaller groups of two or three people; then get the groups to go round to each station and spend some time praying at each one. If you can’t find an object, use one of the pictures from the PDF download.
