2022

Welcome to the 2022 North American Mission Board Prayer Calendar

Missionaries know prayer partners are essential for effective ministry. As the Holy Spirit empowers missionaries, they need your prayers. You can support them by praying for their relationships with God, their families and their ministries.

As you pray for the missionaries and chaplains in this calendar, you help bear their burdens and share in their celebrations as God moves in remarkable ways. Thank you for your partnership in reaching North America with the gospel. We pray that 2022 will be a blessed year in your life and in the life of your church.
