40 Days of Prayer begins today

A while back, Ben Simpson suggested engaging in a communal, intentional time of prayer for the United Methodist Church. The idea spread Youngclergylogo through blogs, Twitter and Facebook, and now here we are at Day One of the 40 Day Prayer Campaign hosted by United Methodist Young Clergy (a blog maintained by Jenny Smith).

The first of 40 prayers is now posted. Each day will bring a new prayer written by a different United Methodist young adult leader. All are invited to join this group in prayer.
