In October 2009, we entered an exciting time here at Canopy Roads. We followed God’s lead and are actively looking to expand our mission efforts church wide. We see opportunities and needs in our own community, across the region, and internationally. As a church, we want to be used as God’s instruments in the works He has planned.
The first step we took was the MISSIONS WEEK of PRAYER. We invited the entire church to take part in this very special prayer event and developed this special website to host it. Each day had a special theme with brief guides, passages, and a hosted video to help lead that day’s prayer:
Day 1-Missions Vision Matt Hall
Day 2-Local Missions Brad Gwartney
Day 3-International Missions Matt Hall
Day 4-Mission Funding Matt Hall
Day 5-Reflection Mark Stover
Also, we established a blog just for the MISSIONS WEEK of PRAYER so that people could share what God has put on their heart concerning that day’s topic. We are looking for God to use this time of reflection and prayer to guide us in casting a vision for missions that Canopy Roads can follow into the future.
