Boiler Room (24/7 prayer)
We have been in relationship
with the 24/7 Prayer organization out of England for over
2 years and have been connected with some of the leadership
for over 15 years. Boiler rooms are communities associated
with 24/7 prayer that hold the values of prayer and mission
along with holistic values expressed through creativity,
justice/mercy, hospitality, and discipleship/learning.
The 24/7 and Boiler room communities have been inspired
by the Moravian and the Celtic Christian Monastic History.
These have influenced Source for years. We believe and
it has been confirmed that this is a divine relationship
of like minded prayer and mission communities that gives
Source a national and international family that we have
never had. It gives us a larger family to encourage and
support as well as a network that allows us to give input
to young adults and creative communities to learn from
our experience literally around the world. We were commissioned
as a 24/7 Boiler Room May 2008.
Permanent
Urban Prayer/Meditation Room at the Fallout
Prayer has always been
a priority of Source, but it seems to be something that
God is asking us to champion more for our own ministry
and the city in general. This has naturally gone hand
in hand with developing our relationship with the Boiler
room and 24/7. Part of this is establishing a permanent
Urban Prayer/Meditation Room at the Fallout. We believe
this to be a significant piece of the future of us making
an impact in the city, young lives, and urban sub-cultures.
We have been and hope to continue doing rhythms of prayer
including: midday and evening prayers Tuesday-Saturday,
Vigil-a night of worship, intercession and prayer the
3rd Saturday of each month and a week of nonstop prayer
every 3 months.
