Next Wednesday, April 6th at 7:00 PM we will continue our monthly Concert of Prayer with First Baptist Church in Burlington. Abie will be leading this month’s prayer times and we will be focusing on praying for those that are suffering with a concentration on our community of Burlington, throughout our country and then our missions focus will be on praying for persecuted Christians in Pakistan and other areas of the Middle East. Our prayers will be that God will break through in the hearts of people and turn their suffering into salvation and that He would even use the suffering of our persecuted brothers and sufferings to lead many to conviction, repentance and faith in Jesus as Lord.
A concert of prayer is very simply a time of structured corporate prayer that follows the same path that Jesus instructed the disciples to take as witnesses: Jerusalem, Judea, Samaria and the ends of the earth. How this is translated is by praying for our churches, our community, our nation and missions to the nations of the world. This is an opportunity for us to gather with other believers in Burlington to pray together that God would pour out His Spirit, His heart and His Word both to and from this community. This meeting is held in the FBC chapel area, use the side door on Stacy Street rather than the main doors on Broad Street. If you need further information you can email
It is our hope to make this prayer gathering a monthly event that many churches in Burlington can join in together, seeking God’s heart and hearing God’s voice as one body.
