Youth across the UK are set to join thousands across the globe to pray for some of the 200 million Christians that are persecuted and suffering because of their faith in Jesus Christ.

Millions of Christians are suffering in silence, reports Open Doors, and so across the world youth ministries and individuals are gearing up to pray for them.

The global 2-day event will take place from March 3-5, 2006 and has been organised by Underground, which is the youth outreach of Open Doors.

The prayer event will take place in Shockwave chatrooms as well as prayer meetings throughout many countries in the world.

Shockwave will commence in New Zealand and will work its way across the time zones, aiming to act as a wave of prayer engulfing the globe for the persecuted church.

The event is the fourth of its kind using Shockwave, and the Chief Executive of Open Doors UK, Eddie Lyle has stated, “Rise up, shake the nations and make a difference. Millions can potentially connect to the power of corporate prayer using SHOCKWAVE chat rooms, in addition to those taking part in the 100’s of prayer meetings being organised.

Rise up, shake the nations and make a difference.

Chief Executive of Open Doors UK, Eddie Lyle

"Please join us in being part of this powerhouse of prayer and see lives and nations changed as a result. It is the very least, and at the same time the very most we can do, for brothers and sisters across the world being persecuted because of their faith in Christ.”
