From the NHS & Key workers to children and young people, from the elderly isolated and vulnerable to those grieving and suffering with physical and mental ill-health, Christians are being encouraged to pause and pray at 6pm daily, to bring a range of issues before God.

We know there has been a desire / hunger for national prayer for those affected by Covid-19 and our hope is that #PrayerForTheNation responds to this collective hunger to pray and intercede to God on behalf of the nation of England.

Cathedrals are also taking part, ringing a bell at 6pm each evening as a prompt to pray and individuals are encouraged to set alarms as a reminder also. There are a range of prayer resources available including prayers written by Archbishop Stephen Cottrell,  NT Wright and Pete Greig:  https://www.churchofengland.org/resources/call-prayer-nation
