Prayer
The Bible says, “Devote yourselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful” (Colossians 4:2). Underlying all of our activities is a desire to honour Jesus in our lives. Prayer is very important in the life of ICL as part of our connecting with Him. Prayer happens before and in our Sunday gatherings and in our Life Groups. There is a monthly prayer meeting where we pray for topics like the city and the nation. We also have times of prayer and fasting as a community.
SUNDAY PRAYER GATHERING - every week at the school at 10 am, third classroom on the right along from the aula.
Once a month there is an early morning prayer gathering, 0630 at Papengracht 28 in Leiden. Next one is on Wednesday 17th February.
Every quarter there is an ICL week of prayer and fasting.
We connect in with citywide prayer gatherings such as the National Day of Prayer initiative and also the local pastors and leaders prayer network.
Your prayer requests: email us at prayer@ichurchleiden.nl.
