“One day, one place, 50,000 in prayer.”
For 2015, Singapore’s Jubilee year, the annual Global Day of Prayer (GDOP) has been designated as Jubilee Day of Prayer (JDOP), jointly organised by the National Council of Churches of Singapore (NCCS) and the Evangelical Fellowship of Singapore (EFOS). It will be held on 5 July at the revamped National Stadium in our new iconic Sports Hub. This is “A Premier, Historic Christian Event; A Once-in-a-Lifetime Prayer Meeting”.
The Anglicans, Assemblies of God, Baptists, Brethren churches, Evangelical Free Church of Singapore, Lutherans, Methodists and Presbyterians are strongly supportive and will be participating in JDOP. This special prayer celebration has been made possible by the full support of partners like NCCS, Singapore Baptist Convention, Indian Christian Network, National Prayer Alliance, LoveSingapore and the Festival of Praise.
Over the past nine years, EFOS has been privileged to coordinate and lead in the GDOP in Singapore. We have been blessed by and are truly grateful for the support of many churches and leaders from the Methodist denomination. Some, as anchor churches, have been instrumental in organising previous centralised gatherings (e.g. at the National Stadium, Indoor Stadium, and Expo).
We are glad to have had the opportunity to work with the Rev Malcolm Tan (then Pastor-in-Charge of Barker Road Methodist Church) in 2011, and thank the Lord for the many Methodist churches like Bedok, Fairfield, Kum Yan, Living Hope, Paya Lebar, Pentecost, and Toa Payoh which served as anchor churches, and many others for their financial support. We are especially grateful to the Lord that Bishop Dr Wee Boon Hup has agreed to chair this year’s Steering Committee.
City@Prayer meetings for JDOP are being held at St. Andrew’s Cathedral on the first Friday of each month, from 1–2 p.m. Do join us!
