Mark 16:15
And He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature.“
It’s been on the books for several months, and today is the day for the big reveal: the Lord willing, over the next two and a half years, every TGP team member will be able to go on a virtual prayer walk in each of the remaining five permanently inhabited continents! Last winter we did our first virtual prayer walk together in New York City. That prayer walk was the springboard for the idea of doing one through cities in Asia, Europe, Africa, Australia, and South America. We will plan to do one virtual prayer walk each semester for this and the next four semesters. Although it may not be possible for our feet to ever physically walk on each of those continents, our prayers have the potential to make a difference.
So, let’s go! Let’s lace up our virtual tennis shoes, pack our backpacks, and head over to Tokyo, Japan! Our route is a 45-mile walk through the city. My goal is to walk around a mile each day Monday through Friday, using the Conqueror Virtual Challenges app to track progress, and take screenshots of the street view at the end of each day’s walk. The next morning I’ll post that picture and three related prayer requests.
The following map shows our route in its entirety. The cross marker shows our location, and the blue line the path we will follow:
1. Pray for the Lord to guide our prayers for the people of Tokyo over the next 9+ weeks, and use them to make a difference for His eternal kingdom.
2. Pray that at some point during this prayer walk, you will meet a person of Japanese ethnicity, and be able to witness to him / her, even if it’s only the three words “Jesus loves you!”
3. Please consider inviting someone to join us for this virtual prayer walk. You can reply to this post so that I can add that person to a direct email list.
Thank you for joining us on this virtual trip / prayer walk in Tokyo!
