. . . we can sometimes get too organized.
I’m not against organization per se, just the notion that our four-color brochures, state-of-the-art websites, fully stocked resource centers, newly carpeted prayer rooms, 24/7 prayer meeting schedules are the essence of a successful prayer ministry. x |

Enhancing Prayer for Leaders
Q. Every June and every December our ministry leaders go away and we have a time of impartation from our pastor and usually one or two of our ministry leaders shares with us. In June we usually have an outside speaker. Saturday morning is our early morning prayer time and SundQ & Ray morning before departing for home we gather around our pastor and [his wife] with a prayer of encouragement for them and commitment from us.
Do you have any suggestions on how to enhance this time of leadership prayer? Saturday morning is the time slotted for the longest prayer time, whereas, Sundays are usually 1/2hr. By the time everyone get to the designated room, it's time for breakfast and we leave for our own worship service at our home church. Some usually linger behind, skipping breakfast, most have to eat.

Youth Ministry on Your Knees: Mentoring and Mobilizing Young People to Pray
by Mike Higgs
Pray! Books
Retail Price: $12
“One of the main thrusts of this book,” Mike tells us, “is to help the development of prayer-driven youth ministries as well as prayer-driven youth ministers.” Radical concept, sad to say! Could it be the revival so many are praying for daily, will arise in and then through students and collegians? What will the Church in America look like if tomorrow’s leaders are mentored today to become “a whole new army of praying youth”? (Dick Eastman, Every Home for Christ)
