The Penetrating the Lostness report adopted by the messengers to the 2010 Southern Baptist Convention called upon Southern Baptists to engage in prayer for lost people and renewal events at the associational and local church levels during the month of January.  Mission Ohio has embraced this call.  The Mission Council of the State Convention of Baptists in Ohio adopted without opposition the recommendations of the Ohio Great Commission committee which called for prayer and renewal events in January.

The following associations have published their prayer and renewal events.  Other associations are conducting them in a variety of ways.

Bryant Wright, president of the Southern Baptist Convention, has challenged Southern Baptists to observe a day of prayer for prayer, fasting, and repentance January 30, 2011.  You may access additional information at http://www.sbc.net/dayofprayer/ on the sbc.net website of the Southern Baptist Convention.

 Mission Ohio is the cooperative effort of Southern Baptists to reach at least 1,000,000 believers in 2,020 congregations by the end of 2020.  The State Convention of Baptists in Ohio is the missionary organization of Southern Baptists to assist Southern Baptist churches and associations obey the Great Commission.  The Cooperative Mission Program gifts from churches supports the mission work and missionaries of Mission Ohio and the other 10,000 plus Southern Baptist missionaries around the world.

A lost world from Ohio to the ends of the earth needs Jesus.  Please join us in prayer and spiritual renewal to penetrate the lostness.  Let’s press toward that mark.
