Dear Pastor, Prayer Coordinator or Small Group Leader:
Please accept my apologies for such short notice.
Pray Lee County is not an annual event, however, when the Lord overwhelmingly points in a certain direction, we do our best to respond accordingly.
I know how difficult it is to add to or change planning calendars on such short notice. If it is His plan and not man’s—He will make the way smooth for a quick transition through His grace, anointing and favor or the way will be greatly challenging and we will be witnesses to His mercy—either way, He leaves the decision to you whether or not to pass this on to others in the challenge to pray in unity.
We don’t believe anyone would argue that our country and the world is in need for the Church to pray and minister to the needs of others—the world is out of answers for what ales it. Joplin, Japan, Tuscaloosa, Wall Street, Main Street, Arizona, Texas—from tornado’s and earthquakes to financial and real forest fires, no one can make a case against the speed of unforeseen circumstances that requires prayer and a touch of God through His ministering saints.
Thank you for your participation as well as your love and service to Jesus, our Lord.
Sincerely,
John Moran
Pray Lee County

2011 Campaign of Prayer—Pray Lee County
Coordinating our Season of prayer for 2011 will be Linda Milligan and her team at Key of David, House of Prayer as well as the Alva House of Prayer. They are an awesome support team for the Church and churches of Lee County as they endeavor to pray 24 hours a day to bless the plans of the Lord.
Linda and her team is coordinating this campaign and can assist you, your prayer team or anyone praying through the 51 days.
Timing of the Campaign
On August 8th, Governor Rick Perry of Texas has called for a time of prayer for our nation in Reliant Stadium in Houston. Our nation needs prayer—not only for fiscal, economic and natural disaster issues, but for the assault on our moral virtues and Judeo-Christian values. It seems to be the timing of the Lord to join tens of thousand of people in Texas to pray for our nation and begin our Season of Prayer.
Why 51 Days?
Day 51 will be the Jewish Festival of Rosh Hashanah—feast of trumpets and the beginning of the Jewish New Year. It seemed highly appropriate to end our season of prayer with a trumpet call of God.
In addition, the school year starts August 8th and the R.E.D. Conference is on September 24th. Since the next generation is important to the Lord and the R.E.D. (Radically Engaged Disciples ) Conference seeks to equip and empower students in the Great Commission on their school campus—it seemed appropriate to add eleven days to our great adventure.
