 24-7 Prayer
"24-7 prayer exists to transform the world through a movement
of Christ-centred and mission minded prayer"
24-7 began in 1999 with a single Prayer Room, set up by the young people of Revelation church, Chichester. In this room they prayed without ceasing in one-hour shifts for several weeks, inspired by the example of the 18th century Moravians who had such an impact on men like John Wesley through their model of ‘laus perennis’ (unbroken prayer).
From there the prayer meeting has spread into many nations, denominations and age-groups. Hundreds of non-stop prayer meetings now link up on the web to form a unique chain of prayer.
"We left the prayer room at 0435 madly and passionately in love with Jesus." (Teenager)
The vision behind 24-7 is directly from heaven. It just works." (Church Leader, Germany)
"For years I've been trying to get my young people to have a heart for the lost and a desire to pray. Last night I found 8 of them on their faces in the prayer room at 2am weeping for their non-Christian friends. What's happening?" (Youth pastor, UK)
"It is so important we come together to pray at such a time as this.
24-7 is well positioned to do just that." (George Carey, Archbishop of Canterbury) |
