|PIC1|The World Prayer Centre is hosting its national day of prayer, The Presence, in association with agencies that support the persecuted church, including Release International, Christian Solidarity Worldwide and Open Doors.
The WPC said the day would be an example of “how we can bring God’s presence into our communities to change hearts, minds and situations through the power of the Gospel, the message of the Cross, and the outworking of our Christian faith to bring hope in desperate times”.
In the face of the recession, the WPC said that everything in the nation was being shaken and that God’s presence was needed to transform every sphere of society.
The World Prayer Centre’s Ian Cole said: “As the nation prepares for the 2012 Olympics and its glory, the athletes prepare for their glory, so as the Christian church, we must pray and prepare for God’s glory to be revealed in our nations in the coming months and years.”
Worship will be led by Graham Kendrick.
