During the 10 days leading up to Pentecost Sunday, we want to invite you to join us in praying for Revival in 3 directions –
Each day we will provide a prayer point for 10 cities on this Isaiah 19 highway from Cairo back to Jerusalem!

Cairo, which in Arabic translates as “The Victorious,” is the capital of Egypt and the most populated metropolitan area in Africa. Cairo is a sprawling, ancient city that lies along the banks of the Nile and is home to many world heritage sites, historic figures, peoples, and languages.
Cairo is associated with ancient Egypt, as the Giza pyramid complex and the ancient cities of Memphis and Heliopolis are in its geographical area.
Roughly 10% of all Egyptians identify as Coptic Orthodox
Christian, the primary religion in Cairo prior to the advent of Islam. Religious intolerance from the Muslim majority has limited the growth of this or any other type of Christianity in the city.
An area of spiritual opportunity is the nearly one million orphaned children roaming the streets of Cairo resorting to begging or petty theft to survive. These challenges provide an incredible opportunity for the network of Jesus followers in the victorious city to adopt a generation that can transform the nation of Egypt.
Use these resources to help pray specifically each day.
