| Mark 11:22-26 NIV |
22"Have faith in God," Jesus answered. 23"I tell you the truth, if anyone says to this mountain, 'Go, throw yourself into the sea,' and does not doubt in his heart but believes that what he says will happen, it will be done for him. 24Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours. 25And when you stand praying, if you hold anything against anyone, forgive him, so that your Father in heaven may forgive you your sins." | |

| Dear Praying Friends,
Many people have been asking about how they can pray during the Winter Olympics which will be taking place in Vancouver, B.C. Canada February 12-28. Grace Extended Ministries along with the Ottawa based National House of Prayer in Canada, More Than Gold, and Barnabas and Keats Camp, have been asked to coordinate an international prayer base during the time of the 2010 Winter Olympics.
We are seeking the help from intercessors worldwide. Please consider how the Lord might be calling you to prayer during this pivotal time. Can you join us? Yes, we are inviting you to come and be a part this movement of God. Details are below.
Would you organize intercessors in your area to pray or pray daily on your own? Sign up to receive prayer bulletins that will give you insight as to how you and your prayer group can pray effectively for God's purposes in Vancouver, B.C., Canada, the U.S. and the nations. Send me an email at michael@graceextendedministries.org and we will make sure you receive updates prior to and during the Olympics. Forward this invitation. Please consider forwarding this invitation to anyone else you think might be interested in joining this great prayer mobilization effort. |

KEATS ISLAND INTERNATIONAL PRAYER CENTRE
The Call: We invite intercessors throughout the world to come to the Vancouver area during the Winter Olympics (Feb. 12-28, 2010) to join in prayer for God's purposes during this critical time. Come for any portion of this time period as we intercede for this strategic gateway city, its call to the nations, and the specific opportunity for outreach that the Church in the Vancouver region is rising up to meet. The Vision: The Keats Island International Prayer Centre is a short term effort to mobilize intercessory prayer support for the Vancouver region, Canada, the U.S., and the nations during the Winter Olympics from Feb 12 - 28, 2010. We will be in constant communication with the many outreach efforts taking place at Olympic sites, and using a "live feed" to stay connected to the worship events each night. A seasoned leadership team will provide a variety of forms and opportunities for focused prayer throughout each day using prayer watches, prayer stations and at times commissioning prayer teams to specific tasks.
Location: Keats Island is located in Howe Sound, approximately 15 miles (24 kilometres) northwest of Vancouver, opposite the town of Gibsons on the Sechelt Peninsula. Travel time is as little as 15 minutes by seaplane or a maximum of 1 hour by ferry and/or charter boat from the BC Ferry terminal of Horseshoe Bay in West Vancouver. Using the facilities of both Keats Camps and Barnabas Family Ministries on Keats Island, we will provide meals, beds, and transportation in one of Canada's most beautiful locations.
Application Process: We do ask you to fill out a one page application. We will try to reply with an approval in 48 hours after receiving the application. Accomodation charges will not be processed until the approval is given. Please download application here |

The battles are fought in the heavenly realms. Mountains can be moved through prayer. Would you consider being a part of this historical movement? Would you pray about coming to Keats Island for a few days during the Olympics? If you're not able to come, would you pray about your role as an intercessor for the nations during February 12-28 from your home or church? |
