Area Coordinator tells parents to contact “Moms in Prayer” group

“Later on, she moved to Canada where she continued to engage other women to join her to pray for children and schools. Presently Moms in Prayer fellowships have been introduced in 140 countries.” In the Caribbean, the countries that have launched the prayer movement are the Bahamas, St. Martaan , Barbados, Jamaica, St Croix and Guyana.

In October,Flemming said, members of the Moms in Prayer International will gather in Dallas, Texas to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the movement. She called on mothers in St. Kitts and Nevis to enlist to pray.
