Thy Kingdom Come is a global prayer movement that invites Christians around the world to pray from Ascension to Pentecost for more people to come to know Jesus.

 

Since its start in May 2016, God has grown Thy Kingdom Come from a dream of possibility into a movement. Christians from 172 countries took part in praying ‘Come Holy Spirit’, so that friends and family, neighbours and colleagues might come to faith in Jesus Christ.

This praying together has been across our diversity and differences as every person, household and church are encouraged to pray in their own way. Whilst an astonishing 92% of people said they were praying for family and friends to come to faith in Jesus, and 40% of those taking part in 2019 did so for the first time, we recognise there is much more we can do together to help Thy Kingdom Come be fully in the lifeblood of the Church.

Throughout the Thy Kingdom Come we will be sharing lots of resources and ideas here and also over on theWalton Parish Facebook.

 

Theres a downloadable Prayer Journal & the Novena Booklet we also have copies of the Prayer Journal available in church.  A Novena is nine days of prayer that usually encourages us to pray with a particular intention. Praying for other people is known as a prayer of intercession.

 

Thy Kingdom Come encourages each of us to hold five specific people in mind during these days; so that the gift of the Father would work through us for their sake, but also would touch their own lives. We are encouraged to spend a few moments discerning who we might specifically pray for in these days.

 

Throughout TKC we will have prayer stations and resources available in St Mary’s with some amazing artwork.

The free app for iOS and Android – containing audio for Morning, Evening, Day and Night Prayer from the booklet for all 11 days. The app has been updated with Sunday psalms and readings and a new feature that allows you to set reminders for any or all the services at times that suit you.

A podcast – featuring all eight hours of the Daily Prayer for Thy Kingdom Come audio is available on this page as well as via iTunes, Spotify and other podcast providers.
