Ohio, USA: Writing on the Wall - 6 Apr 2006
A church in Van Wert, OH - home to 13,000 people - did a week of 24-7 Prayer in March. Here's a beautiful story from their week...
It was quite a surprise to see Felicia come into the prayer room this week, not least because we'd heard that she'd run away this past week. But, unannounced, there she was. And more than that - she ended up being the really surprised one!
She's been around our youth group for a while now, even joining on mission trips, but recently has been going hard in the other direction - running from God, running from her parents; just RUNNING. So to hear that it'd all come to a head and she'd run away, sadly wasn't too big a surprise. But since we'd just started our 24-7 week, we thought we should pray for her.

Well, she came back. Then, one of the youth invited her to come down to the prayer room, where she saw the prayer request along with her photo on the wall. God met her there, and she just broke! By the time she was finished, the poetry wall held two pages full of her heart and her story, and thanks to those who prayed for her - IT WAS BEAUTIFUL!!
