A Wider Prayer Movement - Jan. 21

[Vito Nicastro]

>>
>> Dear Pastors of The Glory of God on Cape Cod and The Glory of God in New
>> England,
>>
>> It has been such a privilege to work with you in recent years on various
>> initiatives affecting the wider Body of Christ in Massachusetts- it is
>> even more a pleasure to finally write to you about something we both
>> agree should be FIRST and foremost: prayer.
>>
>> In these times of challenge for all of us as followers of Jesus Christ,
>> and aware of the divisions among us, I write on behalf of UniteBoston, a
>> huge range of Evangelical and Pentecostal pastors, and Cardinal Sean
>> O'Malley to invite you to co-sponsor a prayer meeting with the theme "The
>> Love of Christ Compels Us (2 Cor. 5:14)- To Reconcile and To Witness" on
>> January 21.
>>
>> We understand that The Glory of God on Cape Cod/in New England has a far
>> reach, so perhaps you might help to make this week of prayer, from
>> January 18-25, the start of something great for the Kingdom here.
>>
>> In addition, as a co-sponsor you are welcome to:
>> Let us know your thoughts, input, and wishes for this event if you wish,
>> Let us know how you would like to be listed among the co-sponsors on the
>> flyer (your parish, or "Glory of God on Cape Cod", etc),
>> Set up a table (if you wish) at the Mission and Service Fair saying who
>> you are and any mission or service opportunities with a dimension of
>> Christian unity you’d like to offer,
>> Bring a strong representation of your members to the event (obviously),
>> and
>> Pray- before, during, and after!
>>
>> Many clergy from Evangelical, Catholic, Orthodox, Pentecostal, and
>> Mainline churches will attend, as well as hundreds of other Christians
>> from Massachusetts.
>>
>> We are hoping for a strong Evangelical presence because as you know, we
>> value your voice and your role in the Body of Christ. The themes of
>> mission, prayer, scripture, and witness under persecution will be
>> prominent. We want your particular priceless witness to be heard in every
>> dimension of this event, because this is hopefully going to help add
>> momentum to a continuing prayer movement (and action movement) for the
>> Kingdom of God in metro Boston and beyond.
>>
>> Of course I’m happy to answer any questions- my cell is 617-435-0019.
>> Please email or call me back if you would like to participate.
>>
>> Thanks for sharing this exciting time!
>>
>> Yours in service to Christian unity "that the world may believe" -Jn.
>> 17:21,
