Message from Pastor Jonathan Oloyede, Convenor of the National Day of Prayer and Worship |
Earnest Greetings,
As the daily news on our TV screens continue
unabated with horrifying tales of violence, murders, wars, terror and fear, I
sense in my spirit the need to call the church nationally to the Altar of
PRAYER.
Starting from this weekend and for the next two
weeks, the UK will be receiving and hosting hundreds of South Koreans coming
specifically to pray for and with us the British Church.
They will be travelling in teams from London to 30
regions, towns and cities to weep and cry out in prayer with local churches for
the Land.
I urge you wherever you live or work to join us
physically or in spirit to pray into local, national and international
challenges. THIS IS AN URGENT CALL TO PRAYER!
I call on
all church leaders to continue the good practice of using their Sunday services
and midweek meetings to lead congregations in earnest prayer.
Next week, we will be offering a list of prayer
meetings, prayer walks, night vigils and intercessory gatherings taking place as
part of the Prayer Mission, finishing with us all coming together at The
Emmanuel Centre for two nights of corporate prayer on Monday 15th and Tuesday
16th September.
May His Kingdom Come!
Shalom
Dr. Jonathan Oloyede.
Convener of the National Day of Prayer &
Worship
