one of the really cool
things about Easter at ROCKHARBOR
is that starting at the first Good Friday service,
and going through the end of the Sunday services, the
fairgrounds are constantly covered in prayer. for
three days straight, staff and church members alike
signed up for hour-long prayer walks for every hour.
each hour (even the ones in the middle of the night)
had anywhere from 2 to 20 people. well, today, at
5.00 pm, i had my hour.
when i got there, i found the prayer walk tent. each of us took a rock out of a jar and our instructions for the walk. they told us where to go and ideas of things to pray for. after we got back, we added our rocks to the pile of all the people who had been praying over the past day and a half. it was cool to see that symbolic representation of all the people who came together in prayer for this weekend.
after it was over, we had rehearsal for the next day's kid's services.
