Florence Booth, in The Powers of Salvation Army Soldiers, said it succinctly, “No matter how much we may labor, our toil will be unblessed by God if it is not hallowed by prayer.”
With the United in Prayer initiative, Salvationists across the Central Territory are a vital part of the preparations for the Belonging 2025 Conference and Congress in June. As we plan and seek God’s guidance, your intercession is covering the countless details, programs and activities, speakers, workshop leaders and other participants.
The focus on prayer doesn’t end when the conference begins. During the event, you are invited to visit a dedicated prayer zone. As you make your way to the workshop area in the Milwaukee Baird Center, look for the banners depicting people, like you, coming together to pray, and enjoy a multimedia presentation featuring photos of Central Salvationists engaging in prayer.
The prayer zone will be filled with interactive displays. In one area, you’ll be able to take a request submitted by a fellow Salvationist and commit to covering that person or situation in prayer. In another, you’ll be able to share your own praise reports and encourage other delegates at a kiosk. Finally, bring your phone and some earbuds to scan a QR code and hear a prayer in one of several languages.
Plan now to spend some time meeting with God in this dedicated space.
Please continue to pray for General Lyndon Buckingham and Commissioner Bronwyn Buckingham as they prepare to be with us. Of course, we also want to remember our own Territorial Commander, Commissioner Evie Diaz, along with guest speakers who will join us from around the globe and many of our own employees, colleagues and officers. Lastly, please pray for the delegates.
We are United in Prayer for Belonging 2025!
