The Invitation, November 14, 2024
The mission events called The Send are expanding to several new countries over the next year. Already thousands of young people have come to stadium gatherings throughout the world, resulting in tens of thousands of mission commitments from 2019 until now: 58,975 commitments to go to the nations, 24,466 commitments to reach high schools, and 24,957 commitments to minister to vulnerable children, to name a few.
Please take a moment right now to pray for The Send as events are planned for New Zealand, Scotland, the Philippines, South Africa, and many other nations. Please also pray with us on November 14, 2024, the prayer day for YWAM’s prayer initiative called The Invitation.
- Pray for unity among the churches and organizations The Send works with. We can’t do what we do without churches and people working year after year in the cities we are going to. We want to see them grow together and become more unified under the vision of seeing their communities being changed for and by the gospel.
- Pray for God to stir the hearts of people in these nations to be active in the missional call on their lives. We believe everyone is called to something, whether it is in their own neighborhood or across the world.
- Pray for financial provision. All our teams across the world need a lot of funding to do what they do. Pray they have the funds and other resources to host events well.
- Pray for the release of stadiums and for contracts with vendors. Because of the large number of people at these gatherings, we need sports stadiums to hold our events. This can be challenging at times, because few vendors are used to working with events of this kind. Pray for favour as we work through decisions and negotiate with organizations and companies.
- Pray for The Send’s upcoming events: New Zealand (November 23), Scotland (March 29), Finland (June 6). Other events planned for 2025: Philippines, Armenia, South Africa, and Norway.
