Over 5,000 Christians to Pray in Trafalgar Square on Pentecost Sunday [UK]
Independent Catholic News ^ | 5/27/19

Trafalgar Square is being turned into #TrafalgarPrayer on 9 June as thousands of Christians from across London unite in prayer and worship.

The event on Pentecost Sunday will mark the culmination of Thy Kingdom Come 2019, the annual prayer campaign launched by the Archbishops of Canterbury and York, in which Christians are invited to pray for their friends and family to know Jesus Christ.

Last year saw churches from over 65 denominations in 114 countries taking part in the 10 days of prayer, from Anglicans to Roman Catholics, and Orthodox to Methodists. This year even larger numbers are expected to take part.

Grammy award winning singer/songwriter Matt Redman is performing, along with Kingdom Choir, made famous by their outstanding performance at the wedding of the Duke & Duchess of Sussex last year. Brighton based singer-songwriter Lou Fellingham will also be performing, as well as Sounds of New Wine Gospel Choir, which has just been awarded the Premier Gospel's Best Newcomer Award.

The day starts at 12noon, when there will be an event for families which Thy Kingdom Come describe as a 'fun, high energy worship festival with traditional and modern music.'

At 4pm, Christians from churches across London will gather to pray with Archbishops and church leaders including Bishop of London Sarah Mullally DBE, who said: "This is a wonderful opportunity for Christians to gather together in an iconic part of our great city to worship Christ, to seek his will and to pray for his kingdom to come.

It’s a wonder that the Muslim mayor of London allowed this.

That’s awesome and the latest elections plus the positivity emanating from the Queen and royal family prove that England is recovering its societal health.

In Canada, they wouldn’t let that many people openly participate in hate speech.
