A NOTE FROM PASTOR T:
"My house shall be called the house of prayer: for all nations" - Mark 11:17 & Matthew 21:13 (KJV) 
 "Matthew 21: 14 - "And the blind and the lame came to Him in the temple; and He healed them."

As I studied God's Word and I came across what I felt like were mandates coming directly from Jesus Himself. I saw no wiggle room for me but to examine my church. Was it known as the "House of Prayer" in my town and among the people surrounding it? In Fact, I looked at several "Mandates" from Jesus (if you will) including Matthew 28:19-20 on making Christ-Like Disciples and Luke 10:26-28 on Becoming Love. As I read, I realized it was only after these things were established that the things described in Matthew 21:14 started happening. That only then did the blind & lame come to Him and were healed. In front of our eyes Jesus establishes something for us to see and go do.

Without this visual it was hard for me to understand why the next two generations younger than me were just walking away from the church as if it didn't matter. For most young people, they have never seen their church calling or crying out to God as if He could hear and come to the rescue. And because of that, they may have never seen God answer prayers. For them to walk away from what they see as a power-less and un-effectual church is no big deal.  To us who believe and have seen God move, this just breaks our heart.

God started showing me through His Word if we would establish the House of Prayer, make Christ-like Disciples and Become Love, we would see generations return to God because they would see Jesus. They would see and experience Gods Manifest Glorious Presence in the house.

A Friend of mine, Rev. Corey Jones, tells a story about how "if we want a campfire to go out without much water, we just need to roll the log apart and they will starts going out". I feel that Satan has played that trick on us. Not only do we in our churches roll apart to our corners thus we no longer hear each other pray and call out to God. We miss it when God answers prayer. I also believe that same trick has worked on the church, through either denominations, independent and Non-denominational groups to separate us from each other. We lose unity and lack the Fire because we are letting it go out. Corey continues "that if we just roll those smoldering logs back together, that we will see the logs ablaze again". Then the world, would again see the church as the place of Holy Fire. How Jesus intended it to be. I want to see the church/ the Bride of the Lamb roll back together again and the Fire fall on the house just as in the past. I love the church and I love the diversity and distinctions of the bride. I know we need each other to be praying for each other and for area revival. I believe God loves the unity of the body and is drawn to that. That is why we are starting this regional Prayer Conference. To help us to unite over Prayer Discipleship and Love. I know we are "better together".

The Southeast Regional Prayer Conference is a three-day gathering of pastors and layman from across our city and region, bridging the divide between ethnicity and denomination to experience a fresh outpouring of GOD's Holy Spirit. We will engage in meaningful and strategic prayer. We will be equipped through anointed teaching that equips the local church to make prayer foundational again in our local churches. The simple focus of the meeting is to pray and to learn about the power of corporate prayer.

Our desire is that laymen and pastors are given inspiration and the tools to call their churches to pray. The speakers we have coming, walk in such an anointing and are openly seeking to draw closer to God every day.

They emphasize prayer and living life in such a way that allows God to pour into them daily. We will have group gatherings and break-out secession to help you steward God's Kingdom in your life and growing it in your church.

We are deeply committed to calling our Pastors and Christian brothers and sisters throughout our region back to Biblical Holiness, waking and reviving our sleeping Churches to releasing those held captive to sin and proclaiming life to those dead in their transgressions! We are not denominationally driven, but a praying group of highly motivated Pastors/Layman who have simply answered a "Clarion Call" from our LORD and Savior, Jesus Christ to become the answer to His High Priestly prayer found in John 17:20-23.

The Southeast Regional Prayer Conference will take place in Archdale N.C. August 12-14, 2021
We believe in prayer! Will you come to this gathering so we can pray together!?
