“Where two or three gather in my name...”

“We are asking God for a gospel movement among every least-reached people group—in our generation.”

This is bigger than us. Asking God for a gospel movement among every least-reached people group worldwide is a bold, audacious request on its own. But to ask that He do it in our generation? Only God’s power and the earnest prayers of His people can make those things happen, whether separate from one another or together. In faith, we are asking for a gospel movement and for God to send more workers.

And as we ask, we are also working toward that end through the power of the Holy Spirit. But prayer must precede and permeate a movement.

God’s presence is what makes prayer powerful. He says, “Where two or three gather in my name, there am I with them” (Matthew 18:20 NIV). So, our global prayer networks come together to do the hard work of prayer and experience God’s presence.

Join people around the world in prayer

Global prayer networks are groups of people from across the world who typically meet virtually to pray for the missionaries, people, and specific needs of one of Converge International Ministries’ global initiatives. Each prayer network is led by the initiative prayer coordinator, who stays in contact with the missionaries on the field and then shares specific prayer requests with the prayer network group.

Please join us in prayer for people who have never heard the name of Jesus to have the chance to hear and accept the Good News. Sign up to participate in a global prayer network today.

How to start a prayer network

  • How to start a prayer network to mobilize prayer for the nations

    1. Pray.
    2. Ask a small group of faithful people you already know to join the prayer network.
    3. Ask the global workers in the mission field to approach people they know about joining the prayer network.
    4. Ask pastors who support the work to approach people they know about joining the prayer network.
    5. Establish a regular meeting time, in person or virtually. We recommend meeting at least once per month.
    6. Share weekly updates between meetings.
    7. Keep track of prayer requests and answered prayers—and celebrate the answered ones!
    8. Host virtual prayer walks a couple times per year or when special needs arise.

  • How to conduct a virtual prayer walk

    1. First, establish a prayer network—even if it is small.
    2. Pray for the Spirit to confirm that it is time for a prayer walk. This is very helpful with a new ministry or a new prayer network, or in times of intense warfare.
    3. Identify five to 10 locations the prayer network can visit or be shown images of that represent prayer strongholds or opportunities.
    4. Select one faithful, seasoned person to pray for each location, and ask them to be ready to pray Scripture into that need.
    5. Ask a core team to fast and pray.
    6. Choose a tech-savvy person to run the call so there are no technical distractions.
    7. Decide with your missionary partners whether the call may be recorded.
    8. Recruit people to join the virtual prayer walk by letting everyone know they will not be called on to pray aloud; they only need to agree to pray. Present the walk as an opportunity to not just support the workers and make a spiritual impact but also grow in one’s own prayer life.
    9. Send the meeting invitation to only vetted people. For security purposes, do not allow it to be re-shared.

  • One other way to mobilize people to pray

    Consider using a monthly prayer calendar that prompts you to pray for one person each day. Ask your prayer network to do the same.

Imprisoned, Now Free Indeed

When Martha Anderson retired as an elementary school principal, other retiring staff eagerly shared their retirement visions of book clubs and flower gardens.   But Martha? Martha, of Converge’s First Baptist of Webster, Wisconsin, was going…to jail.   Twenty years before, God had stirred Martha’s heart—and changed her life—through a one-dollar book at a garage sale, detailing […]

The Unstoppable God

When the underground church wants to meet, it may be time for a birthday party.  For this kind of gathering, an excuse is needed. A “birthday party” might be scheduled for 7 p.m., for which believers begin arriving at 10 a.m.  Even for a few hours of meeting together, extensive precautions must be taken. Believers […]

She said no for 95 years, and then…

She had been resistant to the gospel for decades. Even after her daughter came to Christ, and then her husband, she just couldn’t bring herself to believe.  Later, her husband had passed away, and she was living by herself. On January 1, 2024, the largest earthquake to hit Japan since 2011 struck the city of […]

One Soul at a Time

Ducking into the gym of Converge’s Grace Fellowship Church in Brooklyn Park, Minnesota, on any given Sunday, you’d hear two to four languages bouncing off the walls. Dark heads bend over folding tables, delectable aromas of Massaman Curry, Tom Yum Soup or Pad Sii Ew curling through the air. But don’t miss the true feast […]
