Pray Love MANCHESTER! 30th April-7th May

Pray Love Manchester is a week of continuous prayer for our city of Manchester, from Mon 30th April – Mon 7th May. It will be a time for us to join together to worship Jesus and enthrone him again as Lord of the City; to then begin to stand in the gap for our city and finally to take these prayers out on the streets of Manchester and show love to the people of Manchester. Our heart is to especially involve young people and youth groups during this week. Most of the activities will be at St Ann’s Church, St Ann Street, Manchester, M2 7LF.


Prayer Breakfast Info:
Starting from Tuesday 1st to Saturday 6th May, 8.00-9.00pm Pray Love Manchester is hosting a morning of a light breakfast, prayer focus with visiting speakers to lead our time. Venue St Ann’s Church.

Upper Room:
From Tuesday 1st May an upper room has been put to one side at St Ann’s church from 8.00am until 10.00pm for the duration of the week and then individual churches are taking over the prayer vigil during the night and early hours of the morning. The room will be fitted out with prayer stations to direct your time in the room, and there’ll be an opportunity to give and receive prayers through the different prayer station activities. You’ll be given all kinds of media to help you in your prayers, including music, art materials, maps and photos. Through the website you can leave prayer requests or you can send them to info@praylovemanchester.com We would really encourage you to sign up to pray for an hour (or more) in the ‘Upper Room’!
