Pastors and leaders who attended the Vision meeting in 2006 responded positively, and I conducted a coaching visit in October to strategize their next steps. One leader told me, “We were captivated by the vision you gave us—that every believer in our city would be praying for people by name. We believe it! . . . If each of the 8,000 believers in our city will pray for 7 people, that totals 56,000. The population of Corvallis? 56,000
I met with Christian leaders of Oregon State University in Corvallis, who also were captivated by a vision of praying for and impacting the 18,000 students on their campus. I also met with a sharp group of marketplace executives from Hewlett Packard, etc., who grasped the new challenge for marketplace leaders and pastors to partner in Loving Their Community to Christ.
