How to Start a Prayer Meeting
Some of our groups have found that by sitting in on the public Council meetings held in their city halls very beneficial. They usually come earlier and pick up an agenda on the counter heading into Council Chambers and sit in the back of the public seating area and quietly pray. Once the meeting begins they are present to prayerfully cover each piece of city business as it comes up. As the meetings are open to the public there is no permission needed to attend. Even if the individuals can only stay for the first hour of the Council meeting they have made a vital commitment to not only pray for their city but also get first hand knowledge of how their Mayor and Council members operate.
We have 2 sample letters that might be of use to you: Letter to the Mayor and a letter that one of our Prayer Post leaders sent in to city Council. Also we have a letter sent to us from the NWT Legislative Assembly granting a prayer meeting.
