Thousands of Christians Pack West Ham on Global Day of Prayer

Thousands of Christians from across London and the surrounding counties braved the cold temperatures and heavy rains on Sunday to pray 'Your Kingdom come, Your will be done'.

Organisers estimate that at least 15,000 Christians took part in the Global Day of Prayer for London event at West Ham stadium, which united Christians from all denominations in praying for transformation across London and the thousands of churches across the city.

Pastor Jonathan Oloyede of Glory House, one of the chief visionaries behind the West Ham event, said: "I feel that a new foundation has been laid for the churches in London and that this is just the beginning of a new journey of unity and collaboration, that the Kingdom of God is actually beginning to emerge in the church."
