How to Pray for the 2026 Conference

"Prayer is complicated because it seems like we aren't doing anything, but it's also tricky because it's a humble act.  We must regularly humble ourselves before God's mighty hand and cast our cares on Him."  Tony Merida

Prayer is hard.
Prayer is essential for Gospel ministry.

When we view prayer as just another church ministry program, it becomes a burden or one of many different options. 

When we understand that prayer for the believer is like breathing for every human, we recognize that it is absolutely necessary for life, not an option.

Our lives need to glorify God. Being dependent upon Him for everything is one of, if not the best, ways to do this. Prayer shows our dependence upon God. 

Here are some prayers for the conference and the time leading up to the conference. 

• Pray the weekend would help churches by glorifying God, focusing on the Bible, and providing practical ministry tips

• Pray for  Jeremy Kimble, the keynote speaker and Cedarville professor.  Here is a lecture Dr. Kimble taught on prayer - https://www.cedarville.edu/media/video-player/1_owbjh42f

• Pray for the over 50 workshop speakers.

• Pray for those from your church and other churches who attend the conference.  Pray that they would be encouraged and helped in the ministries.  

• Thank God for Calvary Baptist Church's willingness and ability to host the conference.

• Thank God for the volunteers who help with planning, set up, serving snacks, clean up, and so much more.
