WELCOME to the 40X40 HOPE Collective!

Thank you for committing to pray every day for the future of Fuller LIfe! You are now part of the Fuller Life 40X40 HOPE Collective!

We are so grateful you’ve chosen to join us on this 40-day journey of expectant prayer with open hearts!

Starting October 1, you’ll be part of a special group of (we hope at least) 40 individuals, each committed to lifting Fuller Life’s strategic plan in prayer each day for 40 days. Collectively, we’ll seek God’s guidance with (H.O.P.E.) Hearts Open, Praying Expectantly.

Here’s what’s next:

  • Daily Prayer Focus: Each morning, starting October 1, you’ll receive an email and text with a specific prayer focus, a verse to reflect on, a meditative reflection, and a song to go with the prayer. 
  • Prayer Reflections: If you’ve chosen to contribute a prayer reflection, you’ll receive more details soon about how to submit your thoughts.
  • Community: Know that you are part of a community united in faith, lifting up Fuller Life’s mission and future.

Subject: Join Me in 40 Days of Prayer for Fuller Life’s Future

Hi [Friend’s Name],

I’m involved with a wonderful organization called Fuller Life Family Therapy Institute. The mission is close to my heart—providing affordable mental health care and family therapy to those who need it most and training top-notch therapists. 

Recently, Fuller Life has developed an ambitious strategic plan to expand its services and impact even more lives. To support this effort, I’ve joined the 40×40 HOPE Collective, a group of 40 people who are committed to praying for 40 days, from October 1 to November 9. Each day, we’ll focus on a specific prayer request related to the strategic plan and reflect on a Bible verse, asking God to guide and bless Fuller Life’s mission.

I would love for you to join me in this prayer journey. Your prayers could make a real difference in the lives of so many families and individuals who rely on Fuller Life for support.

If this sounds like something you’d like to be a part of, you can sign up here: https://fullerlifefamilytherapy.org/hope/

Thank you so much for considering this. It would mean a lot to have you praying alongside me during these 40 days.

Warmly,

[Your Name]

how it began…

A NEw Vision

Jacob’s story shows the power of affordable mental health care, but we know there are so many more like him who need help.

In November 2023, 10 dedicated individuals gathered with a clear vision emerging: communities saturated with affordable mental health care and highly trained family therapists.

Together, over the past 10 months, we’ve crafted a bold new strategic plan to expand our reach and double our impact.  Our plan includes bold key results and a detailed scorecard to keep us on track.

Months later…

A New Plan

When we shared this vision with the rest of our team, one of our therapists, moved by both the potential and the scale of what we’re aiming for, suggested something that really struck a chord with all of us.

Her suggestion was powerful: 40 Days of Prayer.

So, starting October 1 through November 9, 2024, we will follow this call to action, committing this plan to prayer and asking for guidance every step of the way.

This is where you come in!
