What would it look like if the people that that you came in contact with really grasped the gospel? This would mean that your family, neighbors, co-workers and even those that you pass in the streets knew that there is a God who had a Son named Jesus. They would understand that He came so we could know Him and experience the fullness of His life and love.

This might sound like wishful thinking, but it was actually part of the prayer that Jesus prayed just before He went to the cross to redeem those who were made in His image. As Jesus took time to pray for His followers and for all that would believe on Him through their word, the heart of His prayer was that we would be one with Him in the same way He was one with the Father. Jesus prayed these things so the world would know that the Father sent the Son, and loved them in the same way that He loved Jesus.

When we think about what it means to bring our lives into alignment with the prayer of Jesus on the last night that He walked the earth, our hearts burn to unite our hearts with His and with each other to see His Kingdom come, and for His desires to be established on earth as it is in heaven. Pray Americas is a community of people who have given themselves to following Jesus into a lifestyle of prayer and seeing the message of His Love spread. As we humble ourselves under the name of Jesus, and prayerfully re-order our lives to cooperate with Him in His mission, we believe that God hears our prayers and responds. This is why we are coming together from across the United States and beyond to set aside forty days to walk and pray in our neighborhoods this summer. We invite you to join with us as we lean into God's heart and believe to see the good news of His Love spread.
