About the 10 Days of Prayer:

It is my joy to invite you to join us at Northfield from May 1-11, 2008.

Before the first Pentecost, the apostles and 120 others devoted themselves to prayer for ten days. This is the prayer movement that birthed the Church.

God desires this Church, born on Pentecost Sunday, to “grow into a holy temple”, a dwelling place for God Himself (Eph. 2:22). One of the biggest obstacles to God’s plan is the busyness of the Church. It is essential for us to give Christ the attention He deserves and embrace rest in the new wineskins that God is introducing at this moment in history.

In the fall of 2006, God said to me: “Call 120 to pray for the 10 days leading up to Pentecost”. Providentially, God confirmed His word by sending 122 people over the course of the first 10 Days Northfield. Fifteen prayer missionaries prayed and stayed the entire ten days, experiencing the presence of God and the unity of the Spirit in living Christian community. As one participant said, “There was a degree of unity in Christ that I did not realize was possible before heaven.” We all sensed God’s pleasure in the gathering, and God’s joy overflowed into miracles and sweet fellowship among the Saints.

Learn more about Ten Days Northfield. We hope to meet you there this year.

In Holy Expectation,
Jonathan Friz
