The postcard
invitations were sent out, inviting nearly 100
community churches to bring their kids together for a
Saturday School of Prayer. We waited to see who would
come. Then, on that historic Saturday morning, the GLOW
Stick Team arrived early for one more practice as kids
from the Shekinah Kids prayer group shook off the
jitters for their upcoming responsibilities during the
three hour community prayer sessions.
Sixty people came, ages
4-15, including four kids prayer leaders from two area
churches, and one church from out of State. Parents,
grandparents, and youth came with kids to observe and
some to participate. Four churches were represented when
it was all said and done. It was a success and we will
certainly be doing another SOP ...every six months.
Following is a
general outline of our schedule and topics. You can
download the prayer assignment papers below to see how
we set things up. Also, you can view photos on the kids
side for the month of October as soon as they're posted.

atmosphere it is dynamic. |
