Prayer Covering: God revolutionized our lives in 1995 after reading Peter Wagner’s Prayer Shield (Regal Books, 1992). Both Celyce and I  realized it wasn’t enough to send “prayer letters” to friends.  We needed to have specific prayer partners. God has given us a handful of front-line prayer warriors who pray daily for us,  while others have chosen to pray at least once per week. If you pray regularly for us (at least once per week), let us know by writing to us at joelcomiskey@msn.com, and we will stay in close contact with you.
