The Intense Prayer of the Righteous is Very Powerful. Jas 5:16

This past weekend's prayer walk was good, if not better than expected. In all, sixty-nine WMU ladies (and a few of us men) gathered together to lift up in prayer the area we designate as Zone 6. After an orientation on Thursday night, the ladies from Alabama spent Friday prayer walking the neighborhood around the building Faith Baptist had just purchased, had lunch at and prayer walked Tulane University, and visited and prayed for the Baptist Friendship House and Rachael Sims Baptist Center. Louisiana WMU joined the effort on Saturday and we put our feet to the street in six prayer areas within Zone 6. We even took the time to swing down to Carver Baptist Center to pray for their ministry as well as the new church plant, led by Kelly O'Conner, which meets in their building. Over 100 residence were personally prayed for and around 90 copies of God's Word were given out. Most importantly, however, is the fact that spiritual warfare has been waged against the powers that hold this zone in sin. I am excited to see what God will do as we build off of the foundation of prayer that has been laid.
