A Call to Prayer

On this day, we are encouraged to:

  • Pray for mission – that many would encounter Jesus and surrender their lives to follow Him.
  • Pray for God’s Kingdom to come – as we seek to be salt and light in our communities.
  • Pray for the Body of Christ – to rise up in boldness, witnessing daily and sharing the hope we have in Jesus.


Themes for the day

Our focus will include:

  • The Everyone Everywhere initiative – Seeking God’s heart for evangelism and discipleship across the UK and beyond.
  • The Quiet Revival - Romans 13:11 “The hour has come for you to wake from your slumber, because our salvation is nearer now than when we first believed.”
