Prayer For The Peace Of Jerusalem: A Greater Calling For Christians

Greater Calling, a teleconferencing prayer ministry, announced a free global prayer conference call that will bring together believers from around the world in live, interactive telephone prayer during the annual Day of Prayer for the Peace of Jerusalem on Sunday, October 2, 2005.

The annual event is co-chaired by Dr. Jack Hayford, Pastor of the Church on the Way, who said, "Everyone of us has a voice, and now all you need is a phone to lift your voice with others in prayer." The other co-chairman, Rev. Robert Stearns - Director of Eagles' Wings Ministries - is expected to participate from Germany, where he is overseeing a special gathering for the Day of Prayer.

Utilizing a free conference call service, people just dial a special number to be joined with others from around the world anytime throughout the day. Trained prayer leaders in the U.S., in Israel, in Europe and in Africa will lead specific biblical prayer points for all the people of Israel - Jewish and Arab - and the peace promised for Jerusalem. "We are so excited to be able to lead Christians in a prayer for peace in our land," said Delores Black, worship leader from Haifa, Israel.

In addition, using free software, believers can join a conference using their computers as phones.

"What an amazing miracle of God that I am blessed to meet people from the other side of the globe using my computer and a headset," said the Rev. Kennedy Waningu from Kenya, Africa.

"Although we have thousands of events planned, we excited to also offer people a unique way to pray with us right from their own homes," said Robert Stearns.
