FLEA

A wingless, parasitic insect of the order Siphonaptera, whose mouth is particularly adapted for piercing the skin and sucking blood. Fleas (Heb. parʿōš) deposit their eggs in the hair of the host animal, and the larvae thrive in dry, sandy soil such as that of Palestine. After sparing Saul’s life, the rebel David deprecates himself as a minute flea on the carcass of a dead dog (1 Sam. 24:14).

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.
