You’re Invited!
A few years ago, my husband and I went to a 3-day prayer gathering—with 700 other people. There was something amazingly powerful and encouraging about being part of such a large community, all focused together to seek God’s heart for lost people.
Think how amazing it would be to be part of a 30-day prayer movement with MILLIONS of people—one that you could join every year! Some in fact have been joining this prayer movement for 30 years, and the results have been astonishing!
An Invitation to Pray
You're invited!
This year it’s being held from March 22 to April 20, 2023 - Ramadan.
Ramadan is the Islamic month of fasting—a season where Muslims are more spiritually alert and diligent. It is also the month, where for 30 years Christians around the world have prayed—persistently—that as Muslims practice the rituals of their faith, they would come into a living relationship with Jesus Christ the Messiah. If you want to learn more about Ramadan, watch this video.

Add your prayers to the bowls.
Pray for breakthroughs in the Muslim world.
Pray for your neighbor!
