NAFWB News
Stay up-to-date on happenings throughout the Free Will Baptist denomination with this week's NAFWB News. Read below the exciting things going on in our national ministries.
100,000 Prayers for Our Neighbors
Prayer changes things. Eight times in the scripture we are called upon to love our neighbors. One of the best ways to love our neighbors is to pray for them. We are calling on all Free Will Baptists to pray regularly for their neighbors, and we hope to have prayed 100,000 times by the end of the day November 7.
How can I pray systematically for my neighbor? If you sign up to be a light in your community, you will receive 5 neighbors daily to pray for.
How can we know how many prayers we’ve prayed? Each time you pray, you can click done on the BLESS app or email and your prayer is recorded. We can see the number of prayers our people have prayed in real time.
You can learn more about how BLESS can be used in conjunction with the November 7 Day of Prayer by attending Dr. Eddie Moody’s upcoming BLESS seminar Thursday, September 12, at 10:00 AM CT. Register here.

The 2024 Leadership Conference will be December 9-10 at the Sonesta Nashville Airport. Dr. Gary McIntosh, writer, speaer, and professor at Talbot School of Theology, will be the featured speaker.
