VMV Prayer Team Forming!

VMV PRAYER TEAM

WANTED CHRISTIAN PRAYER WARRIORS

For the eyes of the Lord are over the righteous, and his ears are open unto their prayers. I Peter 3:12
The prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective. James 5:16b

What? We are forming a Prayer Team to pray in a focused way for the Vision, Mission, Values Process!

Why? We will soon be receiving the results of our church-wide survey as well as other quantitative data and in late April, we will begin formulating our Vision, Mission and Value statements. The process is scheduled to wrap up in June, but of course, this process has long-term implications for our church.

Who? Members of our congregation, and anyone else who wants to pray for God's will to be done at the Fairfax congregation.

Scriptural Emphasis?
In Matthew 6, Jesus taught his disciples (us) how to pray. Verse 10 of this chapter contains a phrase which is critical to our VMV process:

“…Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.”

We’ve chosen this scripture as our key verse, in keeping with our motto:

Seeking God’s Vision Beyond Our Own.

Length of Commitment? The next 3 months, from April 10 to July 10. (I realize many people have been praying from the very inception of the process back in August 2006 up until now, and that we as a church will continue praying after these 90 days. It’s just important to hit our knees hard for the next 90 days of this vital process.)

When? Pray anytime! Pray without ceasing! Designated prayer times are as follows:
Sundays, 9:00 am to 10:05 am, in Room 201 (not a class, just quiet time)
Sundays, 10:20 am to 11:35 am, in Room 204 (not a class, just quiet time)

*We may call for an additional “prayer meeting” at other times as the VMV process continues, so stay tuned for an announcement.

**Consider fasting as a spiritual discipline along with your prayer times. See Acts 13 & 14, and a one-page brief about fasting at www.fxcc.org/worship.

What else is there to do? Recruit others to participate! Such as former members, a family member who has visited here with you, a friend who attends another church, etc.
