Great Commission website launched

NewsBaptist News  |  August 6, 2009

A website encouraging support for the Southern Baptist Convention's Great Commission Resurgence Task Force has been launched at www.pray4gcr.com. The site, which went live Aug. 1, gives interested people an opportunity to register their commitment to pray, interact with the task force through blogs, Facebook and Twitter, sign up for updates about significant developments and see photos of the 23 task force members. The task force is asking for 5,000 Christians to commit themselves to pray for task force members and a renewed passion for the Great Commission among Southern Baptists, Chairman Ronnie Floyd said. As of Aug. 5, 1,790 people had registered as prayer partners on the website.
