"We were cut off! All tunnels and bridges were closed! The only way off Long Island was by boat, and we didn’t have one. Our city was under attack, and according to the news reports other targets were also being hit!
Earlier that beautiful September morning we had gathered as a staff to pray, a normal occurrence on a weekday at Youth With A Mission (YWAM) Metro New York. In the midst of our prayers, we received word that a plane had flown into the World Trade Center. Rushing to the TV we watched in horror as another plane hit the second tower, and soon the towers were falling.
It didn’t take long for calls and emails to begin pouring in from YWAM leaders all over the world. “What can we do?” “How can we help?”
I realized I had no idea. I was still in shock, trying to wrap my mind around what was happening in our city, along with Pennsylvania and Washington DC. I cried out to the Lord and His answer was immediate and clear: "Use what I have already put in your hands.”
What was in our hands was a vision God gave to us in 1992, Prayer Stations. We obeyed the Lord and began to put Prayer Stations on the street in and around Ground Zero for a solid year, six days a week. On some days we had as many as 14 Prayer Station teams in lower Manhattan.
We prayed for more than 50,000 people that year and led more than 3,000 to Christ. Each contact was followed up by the Body of Christ in New York. It was this year-long outreach that brought a new and innovative Prayer Evangelism strategy to the attention of Christians from around the world. Now 24 years later we have equipped churches, ministries and missionaries with thousands of Prayer Stations in 14 different languages on every inhabited continent of the world!

What a gift. A couple offered me their prayers. Job well done. Godspeed your mission."

What a successful outreach event! We had the opportunity to partner with Dr. Chauncey Crandall and his Healing Encounter Nights, providing places for people to receive prayer. So many stories to tell of people that needed prayer for healing, for sickness, to recommit their lives to Christ… each story representing someone recognizing the need for a special encounter with God.
