Mark Peterson
Prayer for the Coming Revival
For the last four years, Mark has hosted a weekly prayer group of
marketplace people at his office. The story of the Hebrides Revival in
1949 has had a profound impact on Mark's prayer life as he encourages
others in greater prayer for revival. Mark can speak to the history of
the Hebrides Revival, and offer current principles for travailing and
prevailing prayer for revival. This session focuses on the hope and
belief that revival is coming soon in answer to the faithful prayers of
believers.
Mark Peterson is the executive
director of Prayer Transformation Ministries, as well as a business
owner for more than 30 years. He believes strongly that
repentance and corporate prayer are keys to another revival. You can

Carol Madison
Contending in Prayer for Spiritual Awakening
Based on Jesus' encouragement in Luke 18 to pray with persistence, this workshop
defines a committed level of "contending prayer" that does not give up in
desperation for another spiritual awakening in our communities and nation.
Informed Intercession for Community Transformation
Learn to pray effectively for your community by understanding both the
historical roots and the current spiritual realities. By researching our communities, we
can assess the true needs and pray more strategically. This session can also include
practical prayer walking experiences.
Carol Madison is a writer and
editor who speaks frequently on prayer topics, especially related to
prayer for revival and transformation. She is the former associate
director of Prayer Transformation Ministries, but now has her own
editorial business that serves three prayer ministries: PTM, Prayer
First, and Global Day of Prayer. You can contact Carol through her
website www.justcarol.com.
Madan Valvi
A Life of Intercession
How does intercession become a way of life? Using the
example of the Greatest Intercessor, Jesus Christ, Madan explores
the ministry of intercession: Standing in prayer between a Holy
God and a sinful man. To be effective intercessors, we must
first stand before God and develop intimacy with Him. Madan has
extraordinary stories of God's grace in his life through answered
prayer.
Madan Valvi was born in India
and raised in a Hindu family. When he came to Christ, he felt God's
call to the ministry of intercession for his family. Madan and his
wife Deepali have worked among an unreached people group in northern
India. He is now on staff with Campus Crusade, serving churches both
nationally and internationally. You can contact Madan by e-mailing
him at valvi3@aol.com.

Still Needing Jesus

lives before we do.

situations for more than 15 years. She serves as vice chairman of
