“Finally, brethren, pray for us…” 2 Thessalonians 3:1

Author David Bryant, who conducts "Concerts of Prayer" around the world for missions, has this to say about the mission of prayer. "Prayer is the one world-sized mission available to all Christians. Through it we can love any of the world's unreached peoples, even at the ‘ends of the earth'. Prayer provides us a way to get involved in world evangelization without a moment of delay.  Our lives can begin counting right now for Christ's global cause."

Rev Bryant goes on to say, "World Christians who pray aren't opting for one of many `mission activities'. Rather, they have entered into one mission upon which all the others depend for fulfillment. The greatest impact any of us can ever have on the world missionary movement is to saturate it with prayer and lead other Christians to pray with us."

If you desire to make a difference in the world, prayer is the best starting place. The Prayer Passport is your opportunity to remember each FCF missionary family in prayer. A different name is highlighted every month. Recruit others to join you in this powerful ministry.

"Now I beg you, brethren, through the Lord Jesus Christ, and through the love of the Spirit, that you strive together with me in your prayers to God for me..." Rm.15:30
