Opelika: 30 Days of Prayer
Every day for 30 days we will gather at Court House Square in down town Opelika to pray to the LORD GOD Almighty for Opelika. We will use this time to individually pray for the hearts and minds of the people and our city leaders.
"...if my people who are called my by my name humble themselves, and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and will forgive their in and heal their land" - 2 Chronicles 7:14
When?
Every day from October 1st to October 30th from 12:00pm to 12:30pm. The court house bells will be a perfect call to prayer for us.
Where?
At the Court House Square in downtown Opelika near the fountain.
Why?
Curious to hear more about the why, huh? I wrote an article on exactly that here: https://fromopelika.com/posts/we-re-back-and-with-30-days-of-prayer
14 if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.
- 2 Chronicles 7:14
So why not humble ourselves, be forgiven, and let God heal our land? If He's willing to do it for the Israelites why wouldn't He do it for us?
More FAQs
What will we do if it rains?
Great question! In the event of rain we will continue with the 30 days of prayer, but will pray privately. So we won't assemble.
What will be the structure?
To start we'll do a quick word of encouragement from Scripture, then have an unstructured prayer time for about 10-15 minutes and close up with a corporate prayer.
What about if other events are happening in the park?
The park is big enough that we will just find a quiet corner.
Who is organizing this prayer meeting? Can I get their contact info?
Absolutely! Garrison Snelling is organizing this event and you can email him at garrison@fromopelika.com
