WoW...am I so excited to be a part of Bay Area Fellowship and leading the 5 Points campus. Pastor Bil just laid out a goal for the next 12 months that he feels God laid on his heart.Just three words: pray, Pray, PRAY
- Pray 100,000 hours as a church...HOW...at least 2,000 people to pray 1 hour a week.
- Create a prayer team to pray for needs of people each Sunday during one song
- Cd series to walk neighborhood and pray. Free to everyone who signs up to be a prayer partner.
- Hometeams to have a prayer vigil...about every 5 weeks a night of prayer in the home team.
- All night prayer meetings
- Create a prayer walking path around the Corpus Campus to pray
- Create a prayer team for each staff member

Hey Jason, those are all great goals - as a staff member, I would especially appreciate having a whole prayer team just to pray for me because Lord knows I need God to be leading through me.
Right now our church sponsors one short-term summer mission trip (hopefully we'll have a couple more for next summer). For the past few years, we've had our church family pray for us literally 24/7 while we're gone on mission.
Our church family has always stepped up, and we've never had hours where we weren't being prayed for. There are always people who will set their alarms to wake them up at 3 or 4 in the morning just to invest an hour in praying for us.
So perhaps a 24 hour prayer vigil might be beneficial to 5 Points for mission trips, camps, specific weekend messages, leadership meetings where big decisions will be made, etc.
Great ideas Ariel...thanks for the comment
