Pray for the Lord to send out workers to the harvestfield of New York City.

1. Our prayer walk today stops at the Woolworth Building, which was the world’s tallest building from 1913-1929. Today, the top thirty floors are residential, and the lower twenty-eight floors office / commercial. Notice the sign at the lobby attendant’s station: “ALL TENANTS Must Use Access Cards to Enter or Leave Building…” Pray that, this month,  one of those tenants will gain the spiritual access card described by Jesus in John 10:9.
2. Pray for the lobby attendant in the picture to call on the name of the Lord and be saved.
3. American Technology Services (see the right block corner of the map) employs between 501-1,000 people. Pray for a Christian among those employees to make a difference for the kingdom of God among his coworkers.

2 Corinthians 4:6

Matthew 9:36-38

But when He saw the multitudes, He was moved with compassion for them, because they were weary and scattered, like sheep having no shepherd. Then He said to His disciples, “The harvest truly is plentiful, but the laborers are few. Therefore pray the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into His harvest.“
