THE NECF Malaysia Prayer Commission will host the third South-East Asia Prayer Consultation in October in Kuala Lumpur. Christians leading in their countries’ prayer movements from 11 nations in the region are expected to attend the yearly gathering, which started in 2003 on the initiative of the International Prayer Council. The consultation aims to network the prayer movements in the region and update participants on the prayer efforts in each country.

NECF Prayer Commission Executive Secretary Ann Low said NECF agreed to host the gathering when she attended the 2nd consultation in Phnom Penh, Cambodia last November.

In May, the commission will hold the 2nd National Prayer Consultation, also in Kuala Lumpur. This annual event, which started last year, is a gathering of local prayer leaders from all regions throughout Malaysia. They will spend three days beginning May 1 exchanging news and discussing ways to enhance the prayer network within the country.
