Fifth Friday Prayer Meetings coming up, May 29th

In 1747, Jonathan Edwards joined the movement started in Scotland called the “concert in prayer,” and in the same year published An Humble Attempt to Promote Explicit Agreement and Visible Union of God’s People in Extraordinary Prayer for the Revival of Religion and the Advancement of Christ’s Kingdom on Earth.

His key passage was Zech. 8:20-22: “This is what the LORD Almighty says: “Many peoples and the inhabitants of many cities will yet come, and the inhabitants of one city will go to another and say, ‘Let us go at once to entreat the LORD and seek the LORD Almighty. I myself am going.’ And many peoples and powerful nations will come to Jerusalem to seek the LORD Almighty and to entreat him.”

Four times a year, believers from all over New England unite in prayer at local Fifth Friday gatherings. In Fifth Fridays, we are renewing an ancient covenant and an important connection to the First Great Awakening.
