Sonfire is a prayer community that's pursuing the dream of seeing a house of prayer open 24-7 in Edmonton. Our dream is to have this house of prayer facilitated by a fine arts community, dedicated to the transformation of both the city of Edmonton, and the world. We believe that this can only be done through prayer and radical living.
"Praying like it all depends on us. And living like it all depends on God"

Here we go again!!!

I hope that you all had an amazing summer. And as we begin to say goodbye to another short lived Edmonton summer, we get to say hello to another week of 24/7 prayer. We will be starting on August 31, and finishing on the 6th of September. So spread the word. No really, get the word out for this one!

We have a new location, 10623 76 Ave. Look to the Cross for Victory, our hosts for the last two rhythms, have moved to a new house. So we have a whole new room to plaster with prayer.

If you want to sign up for a hour or two, first check the schedule below (make sure you are on the correct week 31-6) then email me with the time(s) you would like at... sonfire_prayer@hotmail.com
We encourage people to come and pray even if the time slot you want is taken. Remember that nothing can stand against the church when she prays together.

Why we pray

I found this Hymn in a Hymn book that Kate left in the Prayer room. I love because it is so the heart of 24-7 Prayer. The continual prayer of the church world wide...

The day thou gavest, Lord, is ended
The day thou gavest, Lord, is ended,
the darkness falls at thy behest;
to thee our morning hymns ascended,
thy praise shall sanctify our rest.
We thank thee that thy Church,
unsleepingwhile earth rolls onward into light,
through all the world her watch is keepingand rests not now by day nor night.
As o'er each continent and island
the dawn leads on another day,
the voice of prayer is never silent,nor dies the strain of praise away.
The sun that bids us rest is wakingour brethren 'neath the western sky,
and hour by hour fresh lips are makingthy wondrous doings heard on high.
So be it, Lord;
thy throne shall never,
like earth's proud empires, pass away;thy kingdom stands, and grows for ever,
till all thy creatures own thy sway.

- John Ellerton, 1870
