Here’s your opportunity to make a BIG difference.

For the past 20 years Christians have been praying for the Muslim world during their fasting month, Ramadan (aka Ramazan). For 2012 the fast falls between July 20 and August 18. Because its based on a lunar cycle Ramadan begins 10-11 days earlier every year.

Why Ramadan?

The 30 Days prayer event is planned to coincide with the Islamic month of Ramadan so that we, the Body of Christ, will catch God’s heart for the Muslim world. Ramadan is a great way to “link” a prayer movement to something Christians can understand and relate to (e.g. a calendar month called Ramadan). When Christians hear in the media that Ramadan is coming, it reminds us to pray. The 30 Days organizers have found that Christians take the prayer more seriously as they see their Muslim neighbours fasting and active during Ramadan. Ramadan also gives Christians a good opportunity to make friends with their Muslim neighbours (hint hint).

What Is The Purpose Of The 30 Days Prayer Project?

Its purpose is to call Christians to pray for the Muslim world, specifically:

• for greater breakthroughs for the Gospel among Muslims,
• an increased commitment to prayer by Christians,
• and for more workers to be released into Muslim harvest fields.

This is aided by a 52 page Prayer Guide coinciding with Ramadan each year (first edition was printed in1993). The purpose of the prayer guide is to motivate and inspire readers to pray. Each brief article in the prayer guide contains enough content to provide the context for prayer with some up-to-date information. Readers are encouraged to seek further information in addition to the prayer guide. There are many excellent resources available, some of which are listed here.
