Also in the delegation from South Africa are Isebel Spangenberg, former International Coordinator of GDOP and founder of the Global Prayer Resource Network; Dawie Spangenberg, CEO of The Sentinel Group; and Diane Vermooten, Executive Producer of Media Village.
Dawie Spangenberg will be doing teaching on Journey to Transformation for 1 000 pastors on Monday (June 9) organized by Jesus Redeems Ministries.
The same ‘Prayer for the World‘ which includes repenting and interceding for the biblical hope of Christ’s glory and the transformation of all nations, will be said all over the world by Christians participating in the GDOP. In addition to the prayer focus on Pentecost Sunday, GDOP facilitates 10 Days of day-and-night prayer preceding and leading up to the Global Day of Prayer and 90 Days of Blessing and continuing prayer, following the Global Day of Prayer.
