NEW YEAR'S DAY SUNRISE PRAYER RELAY 2017

We invite our brothers and sisters in Christ, prayer groups and churches to join with us all over the world to pray at Sunrise on New Year's Day 2017 at a public location like a hill, lookout or landmark in your city or town.

We suggest that you arrive 15 minutes before sunrise to begin your prayers.

We encourage you to pray the Lord's Prayer (Matt 6:9-13) together aloud as the sun rises and make a declaration that Jesus Christ is Lord of your life, your family, your region and your nation.

Your location might like to include praise and worship in your prayers. You could even take communion, have a time of fellowship or evangelism.

Some churches might want to incorporate the New Year's Day Sunrise Prayer Relay into their Sunday services.

Share photos and videos from your location on social media and use the hashtag #sunrisprayerrelay

Use the prayer resources on the website and register your location at www.sunriseprayerrelay.org​

Whatever you do make sure you greet the new year with prayer.

“From the rising of the sun to the place where it sets, the name of the Lord is to be praised.” Psalm 113:3
