This Saturday, May 2, we are having a Worship and Ministry Night in partnership with Consecrate Orlando and other local churches. The Service starts at 6:00pm and there will be Childcare available for all ages, this service will be held at The Gathering Place.  

We would like to invite you to this service and to… 

 Set aside the month of May 2009 to consecrate ourselves and our city to the Lord.  "Then Joshua said to the people, ‘Consecrate yourselves, for tomorrow the Lord will do wonders among you.'" (Joshua 3:5, NASB)  

 ·      Recognizing the one true God, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, is majestic in holiness, awesome in glory and able to work wonders (Exodus 15);  

 ·      Recognizing the seriousness of the times in which we are living and acknowledging our responsibility for the sin that permeates our homes and our neighborhoods (1 John 1:8-9);  

 ·      Recognizing our own inability to address the root issues involved with personal and corporate pride, poverty, violence and racial discrimination;

 The Body of Christ in Central Florida is being called to set aside the month of May 2009 to consecrate our lives, our city and the greater Orlando area to the Lord, seeking His face and asking for His mercy and forgiveness as we repent for our individual and corporate sinfulness. 

 This time of consecration will be marked by corporate prayer and worship that

 ·      extends across denominational and racial lines;  

 ·      embraces a variety of expressions while maintaining the centrality of the Word;   

 ·      expresses confidence in our God to be the source of eternal hope and healing for our land.

 During this time of prayer and worship, we will invite God to invade our lives, making us one in Him, humble, gentle, patient, and able to bear with one another in love (Ephesians 4). We will ask for and trust we will receive new wineskins, to hold the "new wine" that will be poured out into our hearts for this season.  As we celebrate His goodness and honor His faithfulness, we will express our love and gratitude to Him by reaching out to others in our community.  

 Following the Consecrate l ORLANDO prayer experience in the month of May, we will corporately experience the joy of serving many in our midst who are marginalized, impoverished and hurting in our region.  Participating in the GDOP's "90 Days of Blessing," we will encourage existing ministries as well as participate in special Consecrate|ORLANDO service initiatives.
