CONVERGE DAYS OF PRAYER

2021 Prayer Calendar

Prayer is at the heart of all we do in the church and the world. Prayer is the central avenue God uses to transform us, and it ushers us into continual communion with our Father God.

For many years, the annual Converge prayer calendar has not only served as a tool for people to lift up our movement in prayer but also to assist people as they develop a dedicated prayer life.

In 2021, we ask you to join us each day as we pray for our missionaries, churches that have been started in the past five years, the 10 Converge districts and our national office staff. Several Converge events that help us start and strengthen churches together worldwide are also included in the 2021 prayer calendar.

Thank you for praying for the churches and men and women listed in this prayer calendar. They are working tirelessly to help people meet, know and follow Jesus. Join us as we strengthen their practices with prayerfulness.

You can go deeper by downloading a 21 Days of Prayer devotional guide at converge.org/prayer. This year, we are introducing 21 Days of Impactful Prayer: Moving Forward.

Our prayer for you is that you will experience a deeper craving for the beauty of the Lord and the wonder of his leading in your life and that you will know the fullness of the Holy Spirit and the favor of the God of heaven. Thank you for praying with us in 2021.

Converge is a movement of churches working to help people meet, know and follow Jesus. We do this by starting and strengthening churches together worldwide.

Church Planting 101

Church Planting 101 is two days of practical training where you will learn the basics of church planting led by Converge’s team of successful church planters.

Church Planting 201

Training those who have been called to ministry is a key part of pastoral development. There’s no better place for that training to happen than from inside the local church. During this two-day training, churches will learn how they can work alongside Converge to provide a pathway to those who feel a call to ministry clarify that call, engage in healthy leadership practices and provide the training necessary to send others out with humility and confidence.

StrengthenConverge CompassMarch 8-10 // Converge North Central March 22-24 // Orlando, Florida

Compass provides pastors and their spouse an opportunity to evaluate fruitfulness by: a) defining their current reality, b) dreaming about a preferred fruitful future, and c) helping connect them with a strategic pathway moving forward. Unlike a retreat, Compass is an intensive time that uses effective tools to enable the pastor and spouse to better listen to the Holy Spirit as they complete a self-assessment of your personal, relational and ministry lives. They will walk away from Compass with their own personalized, self-developed guide to help them eliminate barriers and build a framework to move forward and increase fruitfulness in their ministry. Following the gathering, we will connect with the pastor and spouse quarterly on video coaching calls to encourage them as they follow through on their strategic plan.
