Brooklyn Tabernacle

A woman from my home church in Pennsylvania recently related an encouraging story to me about how God is calling people near and far to pray for the Spirit to move in Dakar. She was attending a famous church in New York called Brooklyn Tabernacle. Those of you who attend the Summit Church should recognize Brooklyn Tab because their choir and worship ministries exert much influence over the DNA of Summit worship services [by Pastor Gaynor's confession, not my depths of perception or anything].

This woman from my home church was in New York visiting her daughter and decided to attended a mid-week prayer meeting at Brookly Tab. She went to thank the visiting speaker for her message during the service. The speaker was a woman formerly on staff with Crusade in North Africa. My friend was excited and told the staff woman that her family just came on my support team. The Crusade staffer prayed for our team and asked to add our team to the Brooklyn Tabernacle's prayer team. In other words, a 24-7 prayer team just agreed to intercede for our team for the next 30 days. Praise God for the mountains of prayer being heaped upon the ministry in Senegal!
