"Prayer is the key. It's the most potent weapon we have and it's a tremendous gathering point for the Church of God especially for the UK. I'm really trusting God that the Kingdom of God will unite the United Kingdom as we gather in Wembley this year. With this kind of build up and excitement coming from various streams, the nation is poised for a spiritual tipping point. We need to seize the moment through unity, prayer and prompt action." - Ade Omoba

(London, England)—Global Day of Prayer London (GDOP) can confirm Saturday September 17, 2011 as Wembley Day, when 1,000 leaders from across the British Isles are expected to gather in England national stadium for a Strategic Prayer Summit.

GDOP London believes this will be part of the momentum for the whole church in the nation to start praying towards the London 2012 Olympics. GDOP London is in dialogue with More Than Gold and other Christian organizations to see how this Wembley event will help generate prayers and unity towards the London 2012 Olympics and national transformation.

"This is really an encouraging and exciting development," said GDOP London Convener Jonathan Oloyede.

He added: "It's very inspiring to note that the Wembley Directors and staff are looking forward to the church in the nation coming to Wembley. They have actually said to us "don't just take the Grand Hall for the leaders' summit. We can also offer you the whole stadium!" GDOP London and national network of churches are therefore asking market place and church leaders to place Saturday September 17 into their organization's diaries and church calendars."

In the build up towards the Wembley prayer summit September 17 Christians are being encouraged to join the 500 Days of Prayer campaign, by coordinating regular 24 hour prayer days monthly or start regular nights of prayer.

Oloyede said: "Many church leaders are getting plugged in and excited about the 500 Days of Prayer, which was launched last year at the Emmanuel Christian Centre. A number of regular events have been planned which are acting as a runway track of Nights of Prayer in March, May, July and September leading up to the Wembley event on Saturday September 17 2011.

"To spread the fire of prayer into every town, city and village, we are calling on churches everywhere to join in and host community prayer events on Pentecost Sunday June 12."

Many key Christian leaders are already getting exciting about the rising tide of unity across the nation and the significance of the Wembley Leaders Strategic Prayer Summit on September 17: "I think it's a very exciting development because once you've got hold of leaders you can affect the whole Body of Christ," said Greg Haslam, Senior Pastor of Westminster Chapel.

The Evangelical Alliance Chair and Ichthus Fellowship Founder, Roger Forster said: "I think it's essential that the leaders stand together in unity otherwise the churches never will. Unity is essential as a prayer base."

Ian Christiansen Senior Pastor of New Life Christian Centre in Wembley said: "It's wonderful to see the potential for 1000 leaders coming together to pray and to look at strategies to influence the nation."

Ade Omoba said: "Prayer is the key. It's the most potent weapon we have and it's a tremendous gathering point for the Church of God especially for the UK. I'm really trusting God that the Kingdom of God will unite the United Kingdom as we gather in Wembley this year."

Oloyede concluded: "With this kind of build up and excitement coming from various streams, the nation is poised for a spiritual tipping point. We need to seize the moment through unity, prayer and prompt action.
