RIChFIRe

The conditions around the world are deteriorating. Evil is rampant through out the land. Every day there are reports of war, violence, corruption and lawlessness. How do we, as the followers of Jesus Christ respond to these events?

God’s eyes are searching for those who will stand in gap on behalf of the people and our land. Eze 22: 29-31

In response to the call of God, a group of Christians from Richmond, VA met  together from July 15, 2011 to July 17, 2011 for a time of reflection and training on Intercessory Prayer.
