I WANT MEN TO PRAY
WORKSHOP
The Chautauqua Lake Region Men of Integrity sponsored a morning-long workshop on prayer on Saturday the 20th of March 2010. This Workshop was held at Christ-First UMC in Jamestown, NY. The theme verse for this Workshop was 1 Timothy 2:8, “I want men everywhere to lift up holy hands in prayer, without anger or disputing”.
The Director of The Better Place, Roy Miller, led the men through an interactive time of learning. They dug deep and shared openly as they took an honest look at the purpose of prayer and God’s call to every man of true faith to intercede in prayer just like Jesus. We are called to do the same things Jesus did, but to do the same things Jesus did we must do the same things Jesus did. There is no shortcut. Jesus fasted, Jesus was a man of prayer, and Jesus died to himself. To do what Jesus did we must do what Jesus did.
The men also learned about partnership in prayer, spiritual leadership in the home and in the world. The morning flew by as the men discussed these various aspects and applications of prayer. They all left better equipped and motivated to “get on their knees and fight like men”. The only regrets at the end of the morning – as is so typical of these events – were that the time had expired so quickly and that the men who did not attend missed a very good thing.
The next event that will be sponsored by the Chautauqua Lake Region Men of Integrity is a breakfast and program on Saturday the 1st of May. This will be held at the Healing Word Ministries Church of God on West Third Street in Jamestown. Call Pastor Leecroft 716/868-7699 to register or to get more information. – You can also read about this on the Chautauqua Lake Region Men of Integrity page on this web site.
