Church Members Invited To Join 145 Days Of Focused Prayer
ALVARADO, TEX. – “The Texas Conference has been celebrating 145 years of ministry in the great state of Texas,” Texas Conference President Elton DeMoraes shared. “Christian brothers and sisters before us worked tirelessly to share the gospel within their circle of influence.”
“Because we believe in the power of prayer and want to honor our heritage, on Monday, May 27, 2024, we began 145 days of prayer,” added Texas Conference Prayer Ministries Coordinator Roderic Bishop.
Every day at 7 a.m. and 7 p.m., you are encouraged to pray for the Texas Conference family and new believers to experience God’s power, presence, passion, provision, protection, strength and love.
In addition to daily prayer, every congregation is encouraged to hold a series of meetings in their area during October 2024, designed to share God’s love with their community.
To unite this movement, congregations are encouraged to use the word HOPE in their meeting name. A finale HOPE24 series with world-renowned speaker Mark Finley is planned for Oct. 17-19, 2024. Those meetings will be held in person in Houston as well as virtually so all congregations can watch from their home churches.
“Wouldn’t it be wonderful to see 1,450 new believers joining us in October to watch the finale series?” DeMoraes asked. “Join us as we pray for the outpouring of the Holy Spirit on the many who are hurting.”
HOPE24 is designed to share the everlasting hope that can only be found in Jesus. “Ephesians 3 reminds us that God can do exceedingly abundantly above all that we may ask or think,” DeMoraes added. “Together as one, let’s pray for HOPE24 to be a life-changing experience, for opportunities to share God’s hope and love with others and for a renewal in our own lives.”
Make plans to join the HOPE24 finale in person or online, Oct. 17-19, 2024, and pray daily wherever you are at 7 a.m. and 7 p.m.
Together as one, let’s give hope to each Texas community.
