ANNO DOMINI

Reckoning from the birth of Jesus, the dating of years “a.d.” (Lat. “in the year of the Lord”) and the concept of a “Christian era” resulted from the Easter cycle developed in the 6th century by the Scythian monk Dionysius Exiguus. Rather than the year 753 a.u.c. (“from the founding of the city” of Rome) upon which the system is based, the birth of Jesus is now believed to have occurred somewhat earlier, probably ca. 7 to 6 b.c.e.

Prayer Tents is a Christian mission organization that serves Christians around the world and their local bodies to make disciples ("evangelize") more effectively in their communities. Prayer Tents provides resources to enable Christians to form discipleship-focused small groups and make their gatherings known so that other "interested" people may participate and experience Christ in their midst. Our Vision is to make disciples in all nations through the local churches so that anyone seeking God can come to know Him through relationships with other Christians near them.
