SEASON OF LENT

Lent is the 40-day period (excluding Sundays) of preparation which precedes

Easter. Christians are urged to enter into a time of self-examination and

repentance as they prepare for the celebration of Christ’s resurrection.

Focus: The life and ministry of Christ, especially his last days in Jerusalem.

Synchronised Prayer at 9pm

Synchronised Prayer allows our AMC family to pray in union with one another virtually

wherever we may be, at a fixed time! God will hear and respond to the faith of any one of His

followers who call upon Him, but even more so whenever multiple believers combine and unify

their faith and prayers.

Wherever we are, let us pause at 9pm from 22 March 2020 to pray in one accord and in

oneness of spirit for God to eradicate the COVID—19.

2 Chronicles 20:12

“O our God, will you not execute judgment on them? For we are powerless against this

great horde that is coming against us. We do not know what to do, but our eyes are on

you.”

Let us turn our fears and worries to intercession.

Prayer pointers:
