The 21 days of prayer and fasting will culminate in our Annual Corporate Day of Prayer to be held virtually by Zoom on Saturday 23rd January 2021 due to the current restrictions as a result of the COVID situation.

We furthermore plan to run a 24 hour prayer watch throughout the 21 day period which will also be observant of the eight prayer watches.
Plans for this period include 21 days of prayer thoughts/words of encouragement provided via uploaded video recordings on to our Corporate website. Participants are to include members of the national prayer team, ministers and prayer leads from both within COGOP and external to the church as well as from our youth and children’s ministry.
We trust that we will have your support and prayers as we move forward to effect the above plans with the aim to see a significant move of God.
God bless you.
