 "The history of missions is the history of answered prayer." — Samuel Zwemer
Missions-oriented prayer not only includes praying for missionaries dear to your heart, but also for people groups and whole countries. It can also include praying for mobilizers to be raised up and for your city's churches to be awakened and networking for the Great Commission and the Great Commandment. Go ahead, throw some of this "wood" on the fire of your heart and see where it takes you in the world—through prayer!

- STRATEGY: PRAYING FOR YOUR CITY
If we are going to see the North American Church awakened to mission - beyond the current small percentage of churches passionate for God's global glory - it will take more than vision casting, hard work and great resources. It will take a sustained effort of prayer. We believe God is looking for a few willing and persistent prayer warriors for each city. Perhaps you're one of them! .
