Our Schedule:
- Monday through Friday, prayer will be held at my house beginning @ 7pm. You are invited to come and join some of your Thrive friends and pray with us as many times as your schedule allows. My address is 6088 Summerlake Dr, Port Orange FL. Here is Google Maps link: http://goo.gl/maps/hPVaW
- You may also choose to participate, but pray from your house, as your schedule permits. That is fine, just let me know and I will add you to my "Participated in Awake 21" list for follow up, etc. (I highly encourage you to try to attend a group prayer meeting if at all possible)
- On Saturday, we meet at the Church office @ 9am. The office is located at 5111 S. Ridgewood, Port Orange. Here is the Google Maps link to the office: http://goo.gl/maps/nZxeF (please note, the picture shown on this link is not the office, the office is in the 3 story glass building just North of the building in picture shown)
In addition to 21 days of prayer, many will be fasting something. Some may choose to fast 1 meal a day and give that time to prayer and scripture reading while others will fast all food for a time. Some may choose to fast sweets for a time. You may choose to fast TV. It really is up to you to do as you feel led.
In case you are wondering, here's what happens at a typical evening prayer meeting :
Folks usually show up a few minutes before 7pm. We spend a few minutes checking in on how everyone's week has gone. Our kids may go outside and play in the fenced in back yard or in Emma's room (although some stay in the living room and join us in our prayer time). The others usually come and go and are typically not too distracting. I will have some worship music playing loud enough for us to sing without you hearing my horrible singing voice. I will lower the music at times so I or someone else can pray out loud. You are free to pray out loud as well, or not. Whatever makes you feel comfortable. We wrap it up at 8 pm and the kids whine because they don't want to go home.
Please RSVP to let me know when you are joining us. That way I can be sure to have enough seats, copies of prayer guides, etc. You can do that by replying to this email when you think you will be joining us or on Sunday with your connect card. RSVP is NOT required, it just really helps me out.
For additional information, I added a page to our website. Feel free to check it out, I have added some informational resources on prayer and fasting: Here's the link: http://thriveportorange.com/resources/awake-21
"The life-giving Church is a people of God, whose heart is ever a thirst for God, whose soul is ever following hard after God, whose eye is single to God, and in whom by the power of God's Spirit the flesh and the world have been crucified and the ministry is like the generous flood of a life-giving river."- E.M. Bounds
Thrive is a Life-Giving church, developing families that THRIVE!
Meeting @ Spruce Creek High School. Sundays, 10:30
