In a communique signed by the Chairman of COP, Apostle Eric Nyamekye said; “The fasting and prayers, which are scheduled to end on Sunday, November 13, will be observed on the theme: ‘So we fasted and petitioned our God about this, and He answered our prayer’ (Ezra 8:23), all assemblies have been asked to go about their existing programmes for the week, nonetheless, these prayer and fasting sessions may be fused with any existing programme scheduled for the the week. “All Area Heads and ministers are to get involved and organise these meetings at any convenient level that will yield the maximum result,”3news.com indicated. Apostle Nyamekye also urged the members “to keep trusting God with the belief that He will respond to our prayers and bring relief to the nation”. “May the Lord pour on the church the spirit of supplication, and the burden to stand in the gap and build a hedge for the nation,” Chairman of COP Apostle Eric Nyamekye concluded.
