I noticed this article and wondered how folks could get involved with the Acts 1:8 of the International Prayer Center of Jerusalem. Any ideas?
1,000-plus churches commit to Acts 1:8 Challenge in first year.

+ In the midst of Scott's opportunity-laden week, you asked God to bring someone looking to hear the Good News... that didn't take long! I went to pay the electric bill and saw the gleam in a man's eye, one with whom I have had numerous encounters. How could he be called away as I'm about to ask a question of eternal significance?

+ Shirin and Jasmine were at "Bible Camp," and they asked you to join them in praying that women and children would receive Christ as Savior... Shirin writes, "Thank you for your prayers. Two women opened their hearts to receive Jesus and now the joy of discipleship begins. The next day after camp God showed me John 6:44-45. Also, the children learned about Jesus as the Good Shepherd."

+ You prayed for Jasmine and Shirin as they got back into the routine of home school. You prayed that the fruit of the Spirit would abound during their school time... Shirin writes, "We could feel your prayers, and we thank you for them. The first day started out late, but our attitudes were positive throughout the week."

<>< Jasmine and Shirin will be going on a camping trip for five days with the Girls Home. Join them in praying for travel safety and to use many opportunities to share God's love with the children.

<>< I promise to use the solitude to catch up on much neglected items and could use your intercession to focus on each day's major task.

<>< Ask God to speak to the hearts of Saudis and other Arabs as they reflect on the recent death of King Fahd, realizing that He alone has conquered death and the grave.

>< Pray for a church planting movement among the Punjabi.>
