Night and Day of Prayer
An invitation to every Methodist church to pray for the Church in mission.
In September 2009 the Church was challenged once again to ‘inconvenient prayer'. To take up the call to ‘take no rest, all who pray to the Lord.' The vision was, churches all across this land praying at the same time for this nation, north and south. Around 60 churches/circuits took up the challenge. The feedback was so positive that we have decided to go again! So this time the challenge is 24 hours of prayer with a mission focus, ending again with All-age worship.
The weekend coincides with Home missions Sunday and so we ask God to give us his heart for the churches, community, families, workplaces, schools and world we belong to and to challenge us to examine our presence in those places.
