60 Days of Prayer
The global servants and staff of International Ministries are pleased to bring you 60 special prayers to enhance your walk with God during your church’s World Mission Offering (and beyond).
Our inspiration for these prayer comes from Jesus’ words to his followers, “You are the salt of the earth.” (Matthew 5:13)
Please use these prayers and the Biblical Reflection with church groups, in worship services or in quiet personal meditation, using them as the salt that will bring ever more flavor to your walk with Jesus.
