Greetings in the Name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

On July 4 – 11, 2008 the African Methodist Episcopal Church’s 2008 General Conference will be held in St. Louis, Missouri, hosted by the Fifth Episcopal District under the leadership of The Rt. Reverend John Richard Bryant, Presiding Prelate.  During this 48^th Quadrennial Session, a new component has been added  -- an ecumenical, non-denominational Prayer Walk.

We are asking all denominations to join us on Sunday, July 6, 2008 from 3:00pm until 5:00p.m. in a Prayer Walk in the city of St. Louis. Our goal is to have 50,000 people participating. We request that you share this information with your Ministerial Staff, PRAYER warriors, PRAYER intercessors, Evangelists, and your entire congregation.  We are looking for several willing and faithful servants to help us with this Prayer Walk in establishing PRAYERstations.  We plan to visit area hospitals to offer prayer, and we plan to visit the homeless with prayers and sandwiches.

We believe we can accomplish so much together, so we ask you to please complete the enclosed form and return it to me.

Have a glorious day in the Lord!
