1. Pray that our Convention would approach revitalizing established churches with zeal (and resource investment) similar to what we do with church planting.
2. That those so excited about the positive change in the SBC will take the same spirit of reform found in the GCR to their state conventions and labor for the good of those institutions/agencies. State conventions running more efficiently would also free up more cooperative program money to aim at missions.
