Pentecost 2023: Global Move of Prayer and Evangelism
A message from Werner Nachtigal, International President of GO Movement
Greetings in the name of Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ. As a faithful leader I want to give you a quick update on how we are seeing God move and the opportunity we all have to invite every believer to join Him.
Many of you are focused on preparations for Easter. This is a significant time in the life of the church and a great opportunity to invite people to join us in our churches. We also remember what happened after Easter, after the resurrection of Christ. Jesus told us to, “GO and make disciples…” (Matt. 28:19), “...you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses…'' (Acts 1:8), “Go and proclaim the Gospel...” (Mark 16:15).
Unfortunately, in 2023, most leaders and believers struggle to share the gospel with people around them. But GO Movement is helping us change that. May 2023 is our catalyst for change. Everyone can reach someone as we pray, care, and share with at least one person. It is simple, biblical and critical for our time.
- GO Month in May – a time to get equipped and to pray, care and share our faith.
- Global Prayer, May 18 – Ten days of prayer leading to Pentecost weekend
- GO Day, May 27 – Let’s make history together. By simply sharing our faith with one person on GO Day we can make Pentecost weekend 2023 one of the largest single moments of evangelism ever.
- GO Decade launch, May 28 – Live from Jerusalem we are launching the GO Decade, reaching the world in a joint effort in 10 years. Read more about this below.
This year we’re kicking off an even bigger idea — to finish the task of world evangelism in our generation. Everyone is reaching someone, and together we are reaching the world by 2033. In 10 short years it will be the 2,000-year anniversary of the birth of the church in Jerusalem. That little Upper Room began with only 120 faithful witnesses. This year we begin with 120 million who have already committed to sharing their faith on GO Day. Imagine the ripple effect of every believer sharing their faith in one month, or on one day, with at least one person.
GO Decade begins now, 2023-2033.
Start preparing now. Prepare your heart. Pick your people. Practice your testimony. Pray … and get ready! It’s almost Go Time! Remember, across the world, May is the month we GO.
