Similar events will be happening simultaneously around the UK with thousands of people praying at the same time.

It is not front led, there is no one with a megaphone telling everyone what to do, people simply gather and pray. There are some suggested ideas but nothing is obligatory. It takes inspiration from 2 Chronicles 7:14 “If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from the wicked ways, the will I hear them from heaven, and will forgive their sins and will heal their land.”

THE VISION
All over the world, nations are shaking. Politically, economically, socially, environmentally.It’s a time of great challenge and change.

In the face of such need, we can often feel powerless, wondering what difference we can make.

At times such as these, God calls his people to pray.

This is such a time. This is such a call.

This is a call to cities. It’s a call to cities to pray for nations.

Not just inside, within four walls, behind closed doors.
But outside, publicly, in the heart of every city.

A visible statement of faith.

7:14 is a vision to see ALL of God’s people released and empowered to rise up and make a difference.
To see the WHOLE Church, young and old, come together to pray for our nations and leaders.

No stage, no mics, no brands, no speaker. Just the people of God in one place at one time, with the healing of lands on our hearts.

The world is on the streets right now, rising up for change.
It’s time the Church was too, proclaiming Jesus Christ is Lord!

“If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and will heal their land.” 2 Chronicles 7:14

THE HOUR
7:14pm – 8:14pm
OUTSIDE York Minster

We will come from all over, all streams and all ages, carrying candles and lights of all kinds. There’ll be singing and silence, worship and witness, corporate acts and complete freedom.

A beautiful image of what the church is called to be. A visible sign of what the church is called to do.

Yet within that hour, EVERY CITY will be united at set points in simultaneous acts of corporate worship:
