<h3>Announcement: Uniting Ministries and Generations to Mobilize the Church in Prayer</h3> Church Prayer Leaders Network, Prayershop Publishing, and Presence Pioneers Media are excited to announce the merger of our ministries.For decades, leaders such as Jonathan Graf, Dave &amp; Kim Butts, and others have labored tirelessly to mobilize prayer in churches across America and beyond. Church Prayer Leaders Network (CPLN), Prayershop Publishing, and Prayer Connect magazine have been invaluable resources for thousands of prayer leaders, intercessors, and pastors who are hungry to see revival in their churches and cities. Moving forward, Presence Pioneers Media (PPM) is honored to serve as a steward of the books, content, resources, and relationships developed by CPLN and Prayershop.The co-founders of PPM are Matthew Lilley and Jonathan Friz, both of whom have led various prayer ministries for multiple decades. Along with founding Presence Pioneers, Matthew has helped launch multiple houses of prayer in North Carolina and has served in nationwide leadership roles with ministries such as Awaken the Dawn and Burn 24-7. Jonathan Friz is the founder of 10 Days, a global prayer movement that mobilizes united prayer in hundreds of locations for 10 days in the spring and the fall. Jonathan also helped found the 24-7 Global Family prayer room and the New England Prayer Alliance.With this acquisition, Presence Pioneers Media hopes to build on the foundation laid by the previous generation while reaching new generations with the timeless call to prayer and revival. Technology and forms of communication may evolve from generation to generation, but the truth of God’s word is constant. Whether it be books, podcasts, movies, videos, articles, or magazines, our vision is to serve the prayer movement, prayer leaders, and the Church at large with online resources and print materials to fuel intimacy with God, revival, and awakening.This merger is an answer to our prayers. It will allow Church Prayer Leaders Network’s mission to continue under the banner of Presence Pioneers Media. And it will increase the impact of Presence Pioneers by reaching more people with more prayer resources than ever before. We are so thankful for the Lord’s leading in this transition, and we believe the best is yet to come!Jonathan Graf, President of Church Prayer Leaders NetworkMatthew Lilley, President of Presence PioneersJonathan Friz, Director of Presence Pioneers Media <h2>🎙️ ABOUT THE PODCAST 🎙️</h2>The Presence Pioneers Podcast exists to help you experience and host God’s presence through worship and prayer - because God’s presence changes everything!Follow The Podcast:<a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/presence-pioneers-worship-prayer-and-revival-podcast/id1450541029" rel="nofollow"> Apple Podcasts</a> |<a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/5ICO3YJ6OzyLmw9nwCADdW" rel="nofollow"> Spotify</a> |<a href="https://www.youtube.com/presencepioneers" rel="nofollow"> Youtube</a> |<a href="https://feeds.redcircle.com/a0486a22-9e34-4e08-a03f-5b90a2b5e443?_gl=1%2A88q2c6%2A_gcl_au%2AMTYwODAzMDIxNi4xNjg1NzI5NjIz%2A_ga%2AMTI0MjQ3NDA2Mi4xNjIzMzUwMzA3%2A_ga_KVZ47LYJWW%2AMTY4ODA0OTg3MC4xMi4xLjE2ODgwNTA5MjcuMC4wLjA." rel="nofollow"> RSS</a><h2>📚 FREE E-BOOK ON FASTING &amp; PRAYER 📚</h2><a href="https://presencepioneers.media/p/the-dance-and-the-dirge" rel="nofollow">Click here for a free book</a> - The Dance and The Dirge: The Pain and Pleasure of Prayer and Fasting by Jonathan Friz and Matthew Lilley.

Along with founding Presence Pioneers, Matthew has helped launch multiple houses of prayer in North Carolina and has served in nationwide leadership roles with ministries such as Awaken the Dawn and Burn 24-7. Jonathan Friz is the founder of 10 Days, a global prayer movement that mobilizes united prayer in hundreds of locations for 10 days in the spring and the fall. Jonathan also helped found the 24-7 Global Family prayer room and the New England Prayer Alliance.

With this acquisition, Presence Pioneers Media hopes to build on the foundation laid by the previous generation while reaching new generations with the timeless call to prayer and revival. Technology and forms of communication may evolve from generation to generation, but the truth of God’s word is constant. Whether it be books, podcasts, movies, videos, articles, or magazines, our vision is to serve the prayer movement, prayer leaders, and the Church at large with online resources and print materials to fuel intimacy with God, revival, and awakening.

This merger is an answer to our prayers. It will allow Church Prayer Leaders Network’s mission to continue under the banner of Presence Pioneers Media. And it will increase the impact of Presence Pioneers by reaching more people with more prayer resources than ever before. We are so thankful for the Lord’s leading in this transition, and we believe the best is yet to come!
