Follow the prayer scroll…

What an amazing thing to have a year of unbroken prayer in the diocese! 

Each 24 hours is divided into slots so that night and day throughout the year, at least one person will be interceding in a prayer room in Down and Dromore.

All of the parishes are taking part, each praying continuously for between 3 and 7 days. The ‘prayer scroll’ will then be passed on to the next location.

The scroll is a symbol of commitment to sustain prayer but it also documents the prayer journey through the diocese. Parishes will fill in the dates on which they held the prayer mantle as well as an encouraging story or comment from their time praying and a prayer of blessing for the next parish.

Where will the prayer scroll be in January?
