How many of you Pray for the UPC?
 
Well? Do you pray for the UPC? For unity? For those in leadership to to succumb to corruption etc etc? I hear a lot of anti-UPC rhetoric and it's said they have no animosity but if that is true do you pray for the UPC to become better or do you passively hope for it's demise?

The UPC is inanimate. It's akin to praying for a rock.

Pray for the leaders of the UPC? Sure. They are people. However, the UPC is just an organization.

Unity? Have they ever had that in the UPC?

Daily on my prayer list. As well as any group that preaches Apsotolic truth. I have been known to pray for some of the very men who are vehemently making their opinions known around here. :heeheehee

Uhm, not sure the rock analogy is really correct. Of course, we do realize the prayers are for the poeple who make up the organization.

I pray for unity of the entire Church body

I don't know if I have ever prayed for the UPC but in every prayer I pray for all God's men who preach truth and their families and precious saints of God around the world. And I pray for every missionary preaching truth.

I would hope so, but around here, one never knows!
