Timothy Carr – Director
After receiving the invitation to salvation in 1977 in Southern California, Timothy encountered the Lord of the harvest and answered a radical call to missions and church planting. During many campaigns to the nations for missions, Timothy witnessed the Heart of the father and His affections for the bride of Christ in America.
After many years of worship leading and seeking the Lord for true leadership, Timothy has emerged as a church leader and father with a deepening message of God as Father. He leads with passion and intimacy and a clear vision for the kingdom of God in this hour. He seeks to impart kingdom vision drawing others out in their callings and serves using a strong equipping gift.
Timothy and his wife Laurie live in Wilmington, NC with their ten children. Together they serve as the senior directors of the Wilmington Prayer Furnace along side their family ministries, Together222 and St. Lorel. For further information on the Carr family, read below.
Carr Family History
During the explosion of the Father’s Heart within the Vineyard churches in the 90′s, Timothy and Laurie Carr were radically impacted by intimate worship. This experience catapulted them into the Father’s heart for the Church of America.
As they raised their family of ten, worship and music became an integral part of their lives and grew alongside a vision for travel and the desire to spread the fire that they found in His presence.
As the Carr’s drew deeper into worship, they found it impossible to separate a life of prayer from the heart of worship. The Lord made it clear that if they were to impart what had been given, they had to have it in their own home first. This meant investing in a prayer-driven lifestyle.
The prayer movement picked up momentum and the Carr’s began to understand their calling to night and day prayer. They moved to the Springfield House of Prayer in Illinois where they served as associate directors for two years.
After six years of living as full-time prayer missionaries, both in the house of prayer and on the road traveling with music, the Carrs have returned to the East Coast. With a heart for the Carolinas, they moved to Wilmington, NC in June 2009 where they are contending for the Holy habitation of God through night and day prayer. After a year of meeting in their home, they along with others, feel that now is the time to step out into the building of a public prayer room.
