Prayer Network
“I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for everyone” (1 Timothy 2:1).
Please join us in a network of brothers and sisters committed to praying for our global Anabaptist family.
Started as part of the preparation for the MWC Assembly PA 2015, the MWC Deacons Commission and Communications office are continuing this initiative to connect the global family so that we can lift each other up in prayer.
MWC already shares prayers on the MWC website, Info email, and the MWC Facebook page. The Prayer Network is another way – focused specifically on prayers – to support our global family. Everyone who joins will have prayers from global church family delivered to their inbox.
The Prayer Network will send out an email every two months containing prayers from each region. There may also be extra emails when an urgent call to prayer arises.
The emails are available in English, Spanish or French.
If you would like to share a prayer with us, please write to prayers@mwc-cmm.org.
