Lenten Prayer Focus 2012
Never has the church needed to gather together more urgently than today to pray – to call on God to come, to bring justice, to bring comfort and healing, and for us to actually not just offer up the prayer, but to become the prayer. Tim Hughes, musician
This Lent join with churches, individuals, groups and organisations from across Ireland and around the world – we’re lighting up the world with our prayers, illuminating the darkest places. We’re part of a Global Poverty Prayer Movement.
