Articles and News from My 18 Years as Prayer Coordinator
Over 258 million people live in a different country from their birth country. Another 20 million are refugees, 3 million are asylum seekers and 10 million are stateless. There are many other "people on the move" who are not counted in those statistics -- tourists, seafarers, diplomats, flight crews and so on.
Here are a few questions to help you know how to pray for diaspora people -- whether your neighbor, the person next to you on the bus, another church member or someone you see on…

This month we are joining other calls to the Church for prayer and fasting regarding the global migrant crisis. A small sampling of recent articles reveals the crisis is not isolated to a particular region or among certain peoples. "Malaysia finds mass graves of 24 suspected human trafficking victims" "Inside the Migrant 'Jungle' in Northern France" "Image of Drowned Syrian, Aylan Kurdi, 3, Brings Migrant Crisis into Focus" "Campaign warns migrants against illegal crossings" "'I want a…

Read more…What are some scripture based prayers regarding diaspora?
Diaspora - the movement of people from one place to another - is throughout Scripture. We see it in the garden of Eden, in the life of Jesus, to the island of Patmos. What are some Bible verses, passages or stories that come to mind when thinking about diaspora and how do these help you pray for the world today? What are some biblical prayers involving diaspora? For example, when Solomon prays to dedicate the temple, he prays for foreigners who come to Jerusalem to pray as well as for…
Read more…Diaspora-Focused Prayer Guide for Advent
Advent is the season of focusing on the coming of Christ, our migrant Savior. We know that the Sovereign Lord has been guiding the movement of peoples since Eden in Genesis and that, as Revelation says, He will one day gather the nations before His throne. In the meantime, let us pray that the scattering of peoples will be the scattering of the good news of Christ. Please see attached prayer guide.The Coming of Christ.pdf

In the county I live in, the estimated number of Muslims grew by almost 300% from 2000 to 2010 to reach a population of nearly 60,000 according to one report. You can look up the figures for where you live at 2010 US Religious Census. When we consider that God "determined allotted periods and the boundaries of their dwelling place, that they should seek God" (see Acts 17:26-27), we should rejoice to see God's plan for the nations in action! Local churches and ministries have an…
Read more…Prayerwalking Debriefing Tools?
My church uses several questions to reflect upon what God has said and/or shown during a prayerwalk. When multiple people are prayerwalking the same area (at different times or at the same time), it has sometimes helped us discern what the Lord is doing there. What is God saying to me? What is God saying about this place? The Questions Describe any positive experience(s). [This does not have to be a "spiritual" answer. It could simply be a remark about good weather.] Describe any negative…
