Double or Die!
“Come and listen to me children and you shall hear of the midnight ride of Paul Revere!” It was the evening of April 18, 1775, when Paul Revere rode through the countryside awakening the locals with the cry, “The British are coming!” Many regard the night as the awakening call of the revolution. Have you ever heard of the midnight ride of William Dawes? Or Dr. Samuel Prescott? In fact, before the evening was over, some forty riders were scouring the countryside rousing potential revolutionaries! Of those, it has been suggested, that Paul Revere was the most successful because of “relationships” that he had throughout the region (See: The Tipping Point by Malcolm).
In the next six weeks, we need to double the number of county coordinators that we have! There is a need for a new revolution. We need everyone in the saddle – recruiting, crying out for more prayer for the nation. But we particularly need people with relationships to assist! Call your friends. Call them to rally their friends – to pray, on September 11, at Noon, for the nation.
It could be as critical as Paul Revere’s midnight ride. The nation is at risk.

National Press Releases Set to Go
The national press agent for the Awakening Alliance plans a press release in the coming days. While the national media only tends to pick up on the potential rallies in the days and weeks leading up to September 11, this year we hope they will note that the event is being transformed into a movement!
In addition, I have asked the press agent to prepare releases that you can begin to use in your local area. I will notify you when those are available and where to find them on-line!
