A Call for Unity Prayer Walk - (Registration Form | Flyer)

Saturday, May 30th, 2009 11:30am at Martin Luther King Park.

Dear Pastors, Leaders, and Believers:

Greetings in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ! As we enter spring this year once again our hearts have focused on the peace, protection and favor of God over our city. We believe that God is a prayer answering God! We would like to come together with local churches and ministries to ask for God's hand of protection over our city and our young people for the summer months in the city of Grand Rapids.

We are asking for your help. We believe your involvement in prayer for the city helps to bring a change. Will you please join us this year to proclaim God's protection and favor over our young people and our city?

One of our greatest weapons against a summer of violence is prayer. We know that the Bible says, "The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much" (James 5:16). And we know there is power in numbers (Lev. 26:8).

As Christians we have a mandate to pray for this city and we know the power of prayer and unity. It may seem like a large task to get all the churches in agreement on what could be done, but we are hoping that churches will be willing to join a city wide effort and participate in a prayer walk on Saturday, May 30th at 12:00 noon. Each church would pray and walk in their own neighborhoods on the same day at the same time and have faith that God would do the impossible and bring healing to our land (II Chronicles 7:14).

Each church or leader can decide where they will walk and lead their own people in prayer for the city. If we can get on one accord there is no limit as to what God can do. If you have 10 people or 100 it really doesn't matter. Please fill out the attached form so that we may add your name to the list for the necessary permit. KLM will cover the cost for all ministries listed. We as the body of Christ can get the message out to the community that the people of God are determined to break the cycle of violence and ask God for His favor and protection. It is important that no particular ministry gets the focus. We know that only God and the power of the Holy Spirit and the blood of Jesus can accomplish such a work in our city. However, He needs instruments..... and that's all of us. We thank you in advance for your participation in the Unity Prayer Walk. If you prefer, please join us at 11:30am Saturday, May 30, 2009 at Martin Luther King Park.
