“I praise the Lord for this summit. From the very start we experienced a great level of unity – how beautiful it was (Ps. 133). We were strengthened and encouraged by His Holy Spirit and I pray that overflows into our ministries and beyond.” - Pastor
Greetings in Jesus’ Name.
What a privilege to be called of God to His people here in Newton, and we rejoice at how He has been working in our midst. We are thankful for the Newton Ministerial Alliance and the Missional Church Network and the many expressions of working together that we share. We get to be thankful, but not satisfied! There is so much more. There are too many people here who have not yet responded to His love. There is not enough of heaven here in our part of the earth.
Do you believe God would want to draw the spiritual leaders of Newton, across denominational and racial lines, together to seek His face? What would happen if the spiritual leaders of our city got away for several days just to be in His presence and ask Him how He wants to impact our city through us?
We believe God has invited us to spend 48 hours away with Him at a Prayer Summit. We know that we all have busy schedules, but we believe this is something that will reap great rewards for each participant, each of our congregations, and our community.
We have invited Pastor Howard Boyd of International Renewal Ministries (www.PrayerSummits.Net) to help us in this process. In the past 17 years, IRM has assisted over 1500 Prayer Summits for spiritual leaders in more than 35 states and 20 other nations.
So, our request is that you mark June 22, 23, and 24 on your calendar as days that you are spending with other Newton shepherds - in the Lord’s presence.
Please don’t let anything keep you from responding with us to this special invitation from the Lord.
If you have any questions please contact Timothy Conner at 316/284-0997 or missionalchurchnetwork@gmail.com
