Thirty-two days of continuous prayer, interceding for the UK and Ireland, are planned to take place over the next month, organised by the National Day of Prayer & Worship (NDOPW).

The initiative involves an online prayer vigil which began at midnight on Sunday 4 January and will end at midnight on Thursday 5 February, with the goal being that "unceasing prayer will rise day and night across the nation."

Pastor Jonathan Oloyede, who leads City Chapel based in London, Kent, and across Essex, said: “We believe the Lord is calling His [church] to pray as one: one cry across the land, one heart before God, and one continuous offering of prayer. This is not about one ministry or movement, but the whole [body] of Christ, churches, prayer networks, denominations, and independent intercessors, intentionally connected in prayer.”
