Prayer and care Reaching out to the people for whom you are praying with simple gifts and/or practical support (ideas and resources here).
Praying with a few friends at a regular, set time each day, connecting via Skype, Zoom, FaceTime, WhatsApp, or similar. The joint prayer time can be short and simple, but should focus on praying for people to come to faith in Christ. In league with friends from one (or more) local church, organising a day-long, week-long, or Ascension to Pentecost long period of continuous prayer. This would require establishing a simple system by which people would commit to pray for specific 30-minute or hour-long sessions during the day/night, leading to a non-stop prayer endeavour during the chosen period. |
