What’s The Vision?

The vision is to see the Austin area covered in unceasing prayer (1 Thes. 5:17) by 31+ churches until Jesus returns!

The vision is a unified church with one heart, one mind and one prayer to see God transform our city!

The vision is a growing number of pastors leading their churches in 24 hours (1 day) a month in unceasing prayer!

The Call?

I have posted watchmen on your walls, O Jerusalem;
they will never be silent day or night.
You who call on the LORD,
give yourselves no rest,
and give him no rest till he establishes Jerusalem
and makes her the praise of the earth. Isaiah 62:6-7

The Idea?

Our church had adopted 24 hours of prayer leading up to Easter. In February, my wife and I were kicking off the day of prayer by prayer walking through our neighborhood. Unexpectedly God dropped the idea in my heart—How easy it would be to see our city covered in unceasing prayer if one church adopted 1 day of prayer each month! That moment not only started this pursuit, but started a transformation within my heart related to prayer, passion for God and a growing desire to city our city transformed!

The Commitment?

To commit the unceasing prayer initiative, the senior pastor must sign up the church.

To commit to the unceasing prayer initiative, the church will choose 1 day a month to cover in prayer (for example your church could adopt the first Monday or third Tuesday, etc. of each month). You will have that day for a 1 year commitment.

To commit to the unceasing prayer initiative, the church will raise up prayer warriors to cover the 24 hours of prayer each month.

Sponsors?

The unceasing prayer initiative is sponsored by the Austin House of Prayer in conjunction with Abba, Campus House of Prayer and a growing number of Austin area pastors from the north, south, east and west.

Prayer Gathering?

Update!

Pastors and Ministry Leaders,

This has been an amazing year! 43 churches joined together to cover Austin in Unceasing Prayer! Each of these churches adopted 1 day a month in prayer…it’s that simple… and Austin has been covered in Unceasing Prayer 24-7-365! We are ready to meet again to discuss the 2010 Unceasing Prayer Initiative for the Austin area. We believe it is going to be bigger and better…we definitely want you involved.

Please save the lunch date of Thursday, October 22 for a noon to 1pm brown bag lunch meeting. This is a pastors luncheon—but if you come you may bring another staff person or key leader with you. Also, please bring a pastor from another area church with you if you can.

The luncheon will be held at Northwest Fellowship at 13427 Pond Springs Rd. Austin, TX 78729 (map). You can e-mail me directly at trey@northwestfellowship.com for more information.

I hope to see you at this city changing meeting on October 22!

Trey Kent, Pastor of Northwest Fellowship
