- Worship the One who calls us to rest in Him.
- Be restored and renewed to persevere in prayer.
- Learn to bless children and schools with fervent, scriptural prayer.
- Hear His call to pray for the children you love.

Dear Sisters in Christ,
Are you weary, carrying heavy burdens, discouraged, confused, feeling depleted? Or do you just need to step away from the ordinary for an extraordinary time of encouragement and refreshment?
My fervent prayer is that you will choose to take time to “come away” and hear afresh the Father’s love for you. Jesus promises if you come, He alone will be the provision of all you need. He promises rest.
Let us come with expectancy to receive a greater revelation of who God is, peace of conscience, release from burdens. Let us come together to fan the flame of prayer that is so desperately needed for our children and schools. Every voice from every culture is needed for this great work!
Don’t miss this opportunity to be refreshed, renewed and rejuvenated in your personal relationship with our loving Father.
Jesus tells us to “Come to Me.” What a sweet, personal invitation from our Beloved.
Whoever will…let “her” come.
