Missionary Prayer Groups at HCC

Last week we concluded a tremendous Missions Celebration at Hollywood Community Church. During the weekend we were repeatedly reminded of the fact that each of us has a responsibility in fulfilling the Great Commission.  Regardless of whether we go to a foreign country as a missionary or whether we stay at home to serve as  senders, all of us have a job to do.  All of us are a piece in the puzzle of world evangelism.

One of the most effective ways that you can serve as a sender is to faithfully pray for our missionaries.  With that goal in mind, we are excited to announce the formation of Missionary Prayer Groups (MPG’s).   

What are MPG’s?  MPG’s are small groups of individuals that make a commitment to pray for HCC missionaries that are located in a specific geographic area. 

What are the geographic divisions?  Right now we are planning on forming groups for Latin America, North America, Europe, Asia, Africa, and the Middle East.

How often will each MPG meet?  The plan is for each group to meet once a month.

What will happen in the MPG meetings?  Before each meeting you will receive the missionary prayer letters from the missionaries in your region of the world.  As you meet together you will discuss the missionary’s blessings and prayer requests.  You will then spend time in prayer for each of the missionaries.

Can the MPG’s communicate with their missionaries?  Yes, we encourage each group to maintain contact with their missionaries via Facebook, Skype, and email. 

We must remember that the fulfillment of Christ's Great Commission becomes possible only by the power of God, released through prayer.  Will you become part of our prayer team?  Allow God to use you as a prayer warrior for missions.
