The Archbishops of Canterbury and York are inviting the nation to join them in prayer every evening at 6pm during February.
They have called upon people of all backgrounds to set aside time each day for prayer – if possible stopping wherever they are at 6pm each evening.
The call follows the news last week that that more than 100,000 people have died within 28 days of a positive Covid-19 test. We are encouraged to pause, reflect on the enormity of this pandemic and pray for the nation and all those affected.
