Thanks for the summary of requests. That’s very helpful for praying so that I don’t miss anything.

Is this the thing that’s supposed to start at 11 PM or is that something different?

This the ‘thing’ that starts at 11PM. We are gathering in His name to petition His Grace for these requesting His blessing.

It may seem strange to some that we are claiming to gather in His name, when we are separated by so many thousands of miles across the globe. But remember that He transcends time and space. He left the burial clothes and stone-bound tomb without rolling the stone away, visited Moses, the three Hebrew boys in the firey furnace, Daniel in the Lion's Den, numerous prophets and praying faithful, and entered rooms without opening a window or door. He is the Great I AM and His Spirit has no bounds. He has promised while speaking to His disciples, "Verily I say to you, that, if two of you may agree on the earth concerning anything, whatever they may ask -- it shall be done to them from my Father who is in the heavens, for where there are two or three gathered together == to my name, there am I in the midst of them." [Matthew 18:19&20]

Being spread so far apart, it is His presence which binds us together in His name! We ask for these, agreeing as His disciples now alive in Him. He ALWAYS keeps His promises, regardless of our worries. And remember, on the day of Pentecost, as the disciples spoke did not the faithful Jewish visitors on pilgrimage to Jerusalem each hear the words in their native language?... Gathering our voices from afar in Him is no big deal to such a God!
