Transformation Thurrock : Transformation Thurrock Prayer and Pray4Thurrock join forces

Transformation Thurrock Prayer and Pray4Thurrock join forces

Lara Akinola (right) of Pray4Thurrock and Liberty Ministries has postponed the previously planned outreach event on 31 July until a later date, and instead has decided to hold a 'Prayer Conference' at Gates of Praise International Centre (Curzon Drive, Grays).

Transformation Thurrock - who would've been holding their monthly prayer gathering the week before - suggested combining both events since they are almost identical in aims and content.

We believe that by coming together in prayer we can send out a strong message to churches of all denominations, backgrounds, cultures and traditions that unity is a key component in bringing about transformation in Thurrock.

This is not simply and option, but an answer to Christ's own prayer in Gethsemane, and therefore an act of conditional obedience - from which the Lord can fulfill his promise and command the blessing for life evermore in our community.

Lara says the prayer conference should be a "glorious event... It will be a time to raise our voices in one accord and intercede on behalf of our blessed borough, the work of God in the borough and the precious souls in the borough. I trust also that it will be a time of wonderful refreshing in God's presence".

From her evangelist's perspective, Lara continues: "I am confidence in your continued support and prayers as we move towards tilling the ground for the great harvest before us".

The prayer conference is 1-3pm on Saturday 31 July.

>>> The idea of an outreach event is being discussed now in terms of being an inter-church Thurrock Global Day of Prayer 'Pentecost Fest' on Sunday 12 June 2011. We invite your comments, suggestions and advice on this idea.
