To the 198 nations who registered for the GDOP globally, the over 10,000 venues, and the hundreds of millions of participants across five continents, we add the following sample reports from the USA. As was true in 2005, the main site for the USA was Reunion Arena, Dallas, TX, whose meeting aired on television and radio networks domestically and internationally. Presently, Dallas is fully engaged in The 90 Days of Blessing for which many thousands of area Christians, from dozens of churches are registered to build or renovate low-income housing, serve in clean-up crews, block parties, back-to-school fairs, and various other outreaches to the inner city.
Not added at this time, are reports from Canada where some of the largest gatherings in North America took place (Calgary and Toronto, for example).
For hundreds of international reports, please visit: www.globaldayofprayer.com.
The following are various; randomly selected; and a mix of large and small. This list is not comprehensive.

Capetown Africa, Indonsia, Hong Kong - one was power point picture, one was verbal, another 3 min. internet streaming. We would have enjoyed to do more but they did not stort to become available until the midst of our events and were too timely to download. What we saw was great.
6. Describe one idea or plan you have for the 90 days of Blessings in your community.
Our GDOP has not yet expanded to any large focus on the 90 days of blessing. May be more next year? We continue to meet together to pray 2 times a week, worship & pray in the park together once a month, have a large youth outreach scheduled over the 4th of July weekend. Community wide we are working together in many ways, PTL!
Other Thoughts (Ideas, Future Goals and Visions, etc.)
Though we may not have had large numbers come out from area churches, there is great passion in bieng involved in leadership of the churches present. We plan on gathering together again next year. This year as a community we did 24/7 prayer for th! e 10 days leading up to the event and that was a huge connecto! r and bl essing for our area.

Each person attending was asked to sign up so a database could be developed and be contacted about 90 Days of Blessing. We had over 19! 0 people sign up to volunteer for Rehabitate. We will help remodel 34 homes owned by people over 70 who cannot afford to fix up their homes. We also plan to prayerwalk every zip code in the two-county area.
Another activity is Clean Sweep. This activity gathers people from church to clean up parks and other public venues. We also have another group who will be working with an elementary school.
Other Thoughts (Ideas, Future Goals and Visions, etc.)
Florida has so many people of retirement age and many feel they are through with life--full of complacency and lethargy. We felt there was a spiritual breakthrough of their recognition of their continued value to God.
GDOP also brought together different prayer groups scattered throughout the area who didn't even know the other existed. Now they will begin working together.

We have many expressions... ie. 3 churches in one community made a book of test! imonies that they are distributing to homes in their town
Other Thoughts (Ideas, Future Goals and Visions, etc.)
We used Operation Rolling Thunder (see www.CONECT.US for details) to tie NDP with Prayer Week & GDOP to launch an on going local prayer movement. We had over 235 churches cover at least 1 day with 24 hour prayer and including those who did more than one day............ we had over 300+ hours of 24 hour prayer that covered Washington. In addition 3 counties, 1 city and 1 church were covered with 24 hour prayer as well as our state. Unprecedented cooperation. Now, I have just sent a letter to all leaders challenging them.......... we just covered our state, 3 counties, 1 city and 1 church with 24 hour prayer for a whole month......... why stop! I'm challenging them to prayerfully consider praying whatever day they prayed in OR! T next month and every month there after. In doing so our state will be covered with a canopy of prayer. This is an expression of what GDOP asked us all to pray on May 26....... on going local prayer movements. In doing so we can turn every day into a National or Global Day of Prayer.

None, because we couldn't find one. I was under the impression that there would be a seven minute availabe to incorporate into the program from the days events. (we are pacific standard time). But nothing was available. On your sample program you have a spot designated at the end for the seven minute vidioe and I assumed that would have been made of the days events but I guess I misunderstood that. We ended up showing the power point of Indonesia after out gathering was over. We put it to a song but it was only 2 minutes long. We would have loved to have more footage available. We did use the 3 min. summary from 2005 - 2 times on Sunday morning and the 11/2 min. summmary one time.

Some how this event needs to be publicized in the US. The word is not out in America and that is really sad. We are missing out. We had an amazing time during these 10 days with 24/7 prayer and 4 evening prayer concerts. It is so good to focus on the needs of the world and pray for the nations. Thanks you so much for making this happen. The Web site has been amazingly helpful during these days. I al so appreciated the daily prayer being read. We downloaded them and used them in our prayer room daily. Bless you all for being faithful to motivate God's people to pray for the nations.

We will consider next year's event....I did not have the sense of Spirit momentum this year, but I had surgery and that may be coloring my perception. Also, our area had never done such and event so we were breaking new ground in spiritual and church cooperation realms. I think we also demonstrated the low level of commitment to a prayer event in our area. But...like the kingdom, it begins as a seed.

Other Thoughts (Ideas, Future Goals and Visions, etc.)
Vision for the future would be to have connection to church groups around the globe directly praying for one another on a personal level. It is one thing to pray in general for others, but it is so much more powerful when you have connection with whom you are praying for. If GDOP could start a coordination between different country groups so each church would be in contact with another church group from a different country and then on Penecost all the churches in the community come together and pray as a group for each others church and the foreign churches as well.
We have had wonderful prayers meeting the last two years, but the comments were if we could have only connected someway with some of the others it would have been even better.

We will continue to keep our church open, as a place of prayer, for the next 90 days. during that time we will be completing a prayer room, which we intend to make a public place for prayer. We have three major outreach events in our local downtown park, scheduled in tandem with other area churches. It will include a free bbq to the community along with a day of music, art, dance, etc. We will also join in whatever opportunities come our way to bless our community for Christ. We will be meeting with other area churches regularly for prayer and looking to join forces to reach our community with the love, hope, and salvation message of Jesus Christ.

This is a second report just to clarify. I serve as the WA state coordinator for National Day of Prayer, Global Day of Prayer and Operation Rolling Thunder. I participated in 2 of our 10+ events in cities across! our state. We are using Operation Rolling Thunder to move the church into an ongoing local prayer movement where we turn every day into a Global day of prayer. We are doing this through ORT (31 days of 24 hour prayer). In ORT we covered our state, 3 counties, 1 city and 1 church with 24 hour prayer for a whole month.

Other Thoughts (! Ideas, Future Goals and Visions, etc.)
God is hearing our cries, and we have had an increase of dreams and visions, many about the refining fire and the revival and glory of the Lord. after the gdop we had incredible change in the atmosphere of our church. we participated in the 24/7 prayer and there is revival breaking through. in our youth service one of the girls backs was healed and there were many people crying and repenting and the presence of God was so incredible! i can't wait to see what God continues to do as we continue to cry out to Him as ONE BODY IN CHRIST. several youth groups are beginning to take steps to work together using their strengths to complement each other rather than to compete. yea, God!

When we became aware of GDOP through Pray! Magazine, it was too late to organize an event. Instead we chose to provide the 10 day prayer guides encouraging people, families, small groups to pray each day. Then on Pentecost Sunday we had a special service. The Message was "Pentecost and You," and a report of a recent Nicaragua Mission trip was given. We ended our worship time praying A Prayer for the World.

1. How many people gathered to pray in your community?
300-400
2. What kind of venue(s) was/were used?
Individual churches. In ours, Cambridge City Christian, we had a brief homily about prayer and what God promises, then had individuals pray specifically in 4 areas: for our church and community, our nation, our continent, and the world. The ! congregation was asked to be on their knees or faces as able, ! and pray for each of these topics.
It was effective and moving. We have 250-280 in 2 services.
3. How many different churches (est.) participated in the event(s)?

pray against the apathy we sense
Other Thoughts (Ideas, Future Goals and Visions, etc.)
Last year we had 120 show in Guthrie, a town of 9,000 that was ok but this year we only had 30. We had ours in the Mineral Wells Park pavilion at 4:30 and it was 97 degrees which may have kept some away but I had a lot see me or call and say "when is that prayer event?" and of course it was already over. We really felt our time was worth while and effective. It seems that there is a lot of distractions and apathy in the churches right now. And that will be one of our prayer focus until it changes.

Other Thoughts (Ideas, Future Goals and Visions, etc.)
While holding an outdoor event had exciting elements to it, and was far less expensive than using an arena, the weather disrupted our event causing us to cut it short by almost an hour. Even so, our event was significant and we have received a lot of positive feedback.

Have struggled for two years to get (over 200) churches/
ministries "on board" with prayer, involvement, and/or communicating with each other. Though a "small step" our prayer group will endeavor to personally prayer for each church (5-10 each week) and then notify them via postcard that we desire to serve with them by upholding them in prayer and finding common ground where we might transform this community together. Pray for us!!! This will definitely take more than 90 Days!!!!
Other Thoughts (Ideas, Future Goals and Visions, etc.)
Last year I sensed that God wanted to do something BIG in our little counties. We have an amphitheater and am pressing on towards a large gathering there in 2009 (or sooner if so deemed possible with local co-operation.)

Our 3rd annual community VBS will be held during the 90 day of blessing. The city-wide event is hosted by 5 churches and endorsed by the Big Sandy Ministerial Alliance. We are also having a prayer walk on Satur! day, June 17.
Other Thoughts (Ideas, Future Goals and Visions, etc.)
The City of Big Sandy, Texas, has an active ministerial alliance that has promoted the Seek God for the City and the 10-days of prayer leading to Pentecost Sunday. We hand-delivered the prayer book to each household in Big Sandy (approximately 600) and delivered packets for 17 different churches. Many churches have members who do not reside in Big Sandy; the prayer booklets were distributed to those individuals via the pastor's packet provided by the Big Sandy Ministerial Alliance. We are looking forward to next year!

to seek out the needy and homeless...to spend our time in prayer for and actively seeking to help the poor&needy....is this not to know HIm?Jer.22:15! -16, I am praying for the Lord to reveal the poor and needy to us and provide their need, especially that they receive Him. We have opened a food bank at our church just recently and since the Global Day of Prayer, we have been getting many needy calling and coming with requests. We have many homeless in our area...many people holding hungry, need work or food signs on the side of the road. My prayer this stops, and that we reach out however God leads.
I pray each day"Lead me to the place of greatest need." "He leads me to people like this often. We do all we can to help them. Clothes , food, $,whatever the Lord leads, He equips us.Amen
Other Thoughts (Ideas, Future Goals and Visions, etc.)
My thoughts are very centered around listening closely to
Him at this point in time, He is saying to spend more time with Him and! worshiping and listening, then His annointing will flow, He! will do all things through us....greater things than when Jesus walked the earth will He do through us and I am listening each day to make sure I am in the very center of His perfect will for me. He plans my day and I walk in places in His timing and am amazed at the things He does and gives.....I am amazed and ready for praying all year starting now for next years moving of the Spirit....He moved mightily, a atrong spirit of worship fell on the crowd.....I believe this is where we stay, in an attitude of worship.....He moves then and we just have to love on Him.
I really am praying for much more awareness of this Global
Day of Prayer in the area churches, I would like to be in the group notifying them of this years event to prepare for next year.....

Along with praying the Prayer for the World - Pastor's led prayer and then circles of 3 prayed through the evening over targets of the 7 gates of cities with "Thy Kingdom Come" Prayer Guide Cards given to each intercessors as they entered church - all were challenged to continue praying through these prayer targets daily

These "Thy Kingdom Come" Target 7 Gates Prayer Card Guides are a powerful tool our El Paso/Juarez/Las Cruces region are using as part of Mission America's choosing our Tri-City Region as one of 9 model cities to help us "Love Our ! Communities to Christ." Very practical and powerful daily prayer tool and resource for individual Christians and congregations - as well as corporate prayer groups.

We have a small church of 50 people but we're in the process of forming a new vision with new ideas and approaches since I've been asked to come in and help make this happen. We had some really great things happen during the past few weeks, one of which was our ten days of continuous prayer coordinated with the global events. It would be great if you also had some things that were directed specifically to the smaller churches. Thanks so much! Lord bless your efforts.

We are planning a county-wide gathering next year and will be contacting all the churches in the county to participate. We have already begun the planning, incorporating a meeting that is already scheduled on each! Friday night to begin praying for, working toward next year - hopefully in a venue that will seat 2000 people. We are going to begin asking people who live around our church to come to the dinner on Friday nights.
Other Thoughts (Ideas, Future Goals and Visions, etc.)
This began with me ordering booklets for my two weekly prayer meetings, one in Titusville Fl and one in Cape Canaveral Fl. and to three churches in the area. At the time I could not interest anyone in a county-wide project. But I continued to press on and encourage each church to participate. My pastor, Tony Fadely of Whole Loaf Church, finally got the vision and our church participated at 4 meetings each week during the 10 day focus. We gathered on Pentetcost Sunday to pray. He has the vision for a county wide gathering and we are already contacting churches in the ! area. We are a small church but have wide contacts and willing hand s and feet. I am excited because this is what I have been working for two years. Knocking on doors, ordering books, handing out books, trying to get something started. All in God's time. There were several other churches in the area that I heard about having Pentetcost Sunday prayers using the booklet. I do not have a clue as to the numbers. I would estimate it to be around 200 county-wide. Thank you for all you do for prayer in this country.
Sincerely
