CITYLIGHT PRAYER

CityLight is a national network of Christ Centered prayer groups.  Each Prayer Group has a leader and 12 members who pray together for a minimum of one hour per month. Prayer group members consist of many different cultures; countries, races, communities, societies and denominations but we are united as one body in Christ. CityLight Members are committed to living with the two great Commandments and carrying out the Great Commission.  We are active members in our local Christian Church. CityLight members are individuals, churches, ministries and businesses who have come together in prayer asking for God’s guidance us as we respond to the needs of our community.

OUR VISION
Our vision is for the people of God, every man, woman and child, in this nation and around the world to fall on their knees and answer the call of 2 Chronicles 7:14.  We shall humble ourselves, pray, seek the face of God and turn from our wicked ways.  As a catalyst, connecting Christ to the culture for community change we are called to live the two Great Commandments and carry out the Great Commission. Our purpose is to envision, network, train and mobilize leaders within the body of Christ to strategically form prayer groups with a leader and 12 members to pray together for one hour once a month.

PRAYER GROUPS IN THE HOME

It is essential for a successful endeavor.  It is our vision that every home will have prayer for family and friends.  The home should be the first place of worship.

PRAYER GROUPS AT CHURCH

It is our desire that every church would organize prayer groups to encourage and inspire members to seek the face of God and spend time in His presence.

PRAYER GROUPS IN THE WORKPLACE
Christians are encouraged to use their lunchtime and their breaks to strengthen their relationship with God and their coworkers.

PRAYER GROUPS AT SCHOOLS
Students are able to change the focus of their campuses by putting God first. Prayer groups do not need to be an official part of school but it is necessary for prayer and prayer needs to consume the lives of the students.  Students can pray during their lunchtime, study hall and even after school.  Each Prayer Group can grow into a five-fold ministry of worship, fellowship, discipleship, ministry and evangelism

HOW TO START A CITYLIGHT PRAYER GROUP
A CityLight Prayer Group starts with an individual selecting 12 leaders who desire (1) a deeper, more intense relationship with God; (2) a desire to keep the two Great Commandments and carry out the Great Commission and (3) to have a ministry of prayer and evangelism.  The group holds its first meeting, signs up its members, elects or selects officers and registers as a CityLight Prayer Group. CityLight Prayer Groups meet at least once a month to learn more about prayer and the vertical relationship with God and the horizontal relationship with one another.
