Now what?

I started this project on my old blog, Free Agent Voter, which started off as a political blog, morphed into a Christian social thought blog, and then into the intersection of Christianity and social media.  By the time it got to this "pray around the world" focus, it had clearly drifted so far from the original intent (and URL), that it made more sense to start over.

I'll repost the genesis of this idea from the original, but in terms of where we go from here:
What I see happening is following the World Council of Churches ecumenical prayer cycle (see gadget, right) to pray for each country over the course of the year.  There are a couple of tracks to aid in that: research about the country itself, requests to the church officials for prayer intentions, and soliciting requests from anyone with a connection to that country to reach leaders in that country's church who has a request.

I'm still focusing on the Catholic Church, but on that last part, I say let a thousand flowers bloom.  Any Christian church is welcome to send in intentions.

Where this is going, only God can say, but I'd like to get to the point where I can launch a wiki that allows anyone to update their country's own prayer requests.  I'd need a domain and server beyond blogger for that, and a lot of time, and I don't have any of that right now, so we'll start with this.  Thanks for praying along!
