Hundreds have gathered from Church of England churches across the London Diocese to pray in light of recent proposals for prayers of blessing for those in same-sex relationships.
The event was held in All Souls Langham Place and run by LonDEN (Diocese of London Evangelical Network), which represents Church of England evangelical churches from across the city.
The evening was split into sections of prayer, song and interviews, which were each introduced by a different church leader or representative. As well as praying for processes ahead of General Synod meetings in July and November, there was prayer for those at all levels of authority within the Church of England – from bishops to PCC members. Notably, there was space given to lament, as well as prayer for revival.
