Day of Prayer 2016

050

For those planning to attend…
We are delighted that you’ll be joining us for YFC’s National Day of Prayer! Our team has been praying for you and for our time together that day and we are anticipating a rich time of encounter with the Living God.
We would invite you to be in prayer ahead of time as well:
  • Pray and invite God to prepare your heart and mind to be present with us at the Day of Prayer…take note of the ways you are hoping or longing to experience God that day or in this season of your life. What do you desire from Him that day? What will you need to lay down in order to enter fully into that time with Him?
  • Pray for the team who are preparing to lead us into praise, intercession and celebration throughout the day. Pray that they will have insight and clarity and that they will hear God’s voice clearly along the way.
  • Pray for safe travel to Toronto and for all the logistical details to go smoothly as we gather from all corners of the country!
Here are a few final details that you need to know:
Hotel address:
