Day 61–March 1, 2020

Dear friends,

On Thursday, April 9, together we complete the journey of 100 Days of Unceasing Prayer and Shared Scripture. Across the territory we have heard the stories of people being inspired by what they are seeing God do in and through The Salvation Army. People have bonded together in prayer as we lifted up the various ministry expressions through daily, focused prayer requests. We have learned much more about the communities in which we serve.

Thank you for sharing this journey. Thank you for your prayers. Thank you for listening to God as he has spoken through his Word in the shared Scripture readings from Genesis to Revelation.

We want to also say thank you to those who have already completed the survey and shared with us what God has been impressing upon your hearts and minds through this journey. For those who haven’t had the opportunity yet, we encourage you to take some time during these days of “staying home” to share your thoughts.

As we began the 100 Days journey, none of us could have ever imagined that we would be in the midst of a pandemic at the end of it. We are confident that God knew what lay ahead. This discipline of prayer and shared Scripture has been used by God to prepare us for these days, and the days that will follow. As we spend these days “social distancing,” let’s remain committed to prayer for one another, and for Canada and Bermuda. Let’s remember to continue to spend time in Scripture.

We continue to count it a privilege to be partners in the gospel (Philippians 1:3-5) and together anticipate all that God has in mind to do in and through his Army of salvation.Yours in Christ,

Floyd and Tracey Tidd, Commissioners
Territorial Leaders, Canada and Bermuda

100 Days

Unceasing Prayer

Ministry Expression
Meighen Health Centre, Toronto, Ont.

Praise
We thank God for residents, staff and visitors who are open to talk about God’s love and are reaching out for prayer support.

Petition
We pray that new initiatives, such as the Manor choir, will be a means of increasing engagement and fellowship within our community.

Intercession
We pray that everyone who is influenced by the Meighen Health Centre will be aware of God’s love and drawn to Jesus. We pray that we will live out our mission to those who need to experience the care we provide.

Shared Scripture

Passage
Luke 9:1-36

Reflect
Many people today are skeptical of the miracles in the Bible. What’s your perspective? How would you explain Jesus’ miracle of feeding 5,000 people to a skeptic?
