The Archbishop of Canterbury, the Rt. Revd Justin Welby, joined with 40,000 people to pray for peace, Christian revival and reconciliation at Festival of Life, Britain’s largest regular prayer gathering, which was held at the Excel Centre from October 17 until the early hours of October 18.

It was organised by the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Britain’s fastest growing denomination.

The Archbishop of Canterbury, Justin Welby, special guest speaker at Festival of Life, told the predominantly Nigerian congregation that the Anglican Church needed to learn lessons in prayer from RCCG churches. He shared: ‘There has never been a renewal of Christian life in this country without there being a renewal of prayer. So what you’re doing this evening is the renewal of Christian life in this country. And if you don’t do it, it won’t happen. There’s no effort that we can make in this world that will renew Christian life except prayer’.
