Never Too Early!

Passion for prayer

I’ve been ‘driving’ the NLI Prayer Teams for 3 years now and have been privileged to be involved with some great missions. Over the last few years we have seen an upsurge in people wanting to be involved in the prayer teams and I believe that this trend will continue if we provide the right opportunities. Now that NLI is operating on a regional basis, I’m able to be more focused and really set some strategic vision for prayer mission within particular nations.

One of my goals has been to raise up new team leaders. Over the last couple of years we have seen Ian and Jan Henley, a fantastic couple from Dudley (UK),  really step up to the plate in terms of leading teams. My passion is to see others like them, mentored by experienced NLI leaders, beginning to fulfil their God-given potential in this area. Of course, more leaders mean more options as NLI begins to press on into unchartered territory. Don’t forget there are 47 nations in Europe and our goal is to have ministry impact in all of these by 2020.

So, before I give you the dates for 2010, what exactly do prayer teams do? Well, the main purpose is to support church planting initiatives in Europe. Teams spend time with church planters and staff, encouraging and praying for them, as well as engaging in spiritual warfare and intercession for their towns and cities. The teams also spend time prayer-walking in key locations and meet up with other local believers to encourage them. Of course, going on any mission also means you get to explore some beautiful parts of Europe, meet new people and have some great adventures together. Take it from me, you can make some incredible friendships on mission!

Always time for fun on mission!

Opportunities for 2010

Czech Republic - Saturday 15th – Saturday 22nd May 2010

As described above, the team will be ministering within the church planting initiative. The nucleus of the team will be from partner churches already engaged in this project, but application is open to anyone. John and Marty Smith will be leading this team. Approx costs £350 (TBC)

Slovakia - Saturday 10th – Saturday 17th April 2010

The nucleus of this team will be from Nitra’s partner church in Portland, Oregon. The  team will be serving the church in Nitra as well as ministering in local church planting locations. Ian and Jan Henley will be co-leading this team and application is open to anyone. Approx costs £350 (TBC)

I’m too young! I’m too old! I’ve never been on mission before! I’m not experienced in prayer ministry! These are all typical excuses for not going on mission, but none are valid! Anyone can apply to join a prayer team. You just need a willingness to serve people and a passion to see the spiritual climate change in Europe.

Please contact me if you would like further information about either of these mission trips.
