We want to invite everyone to join us, Cary Christian Church, and others in a day of "Prayer for Light" on Saturday, September 20th. On that day, the NC state fairgrounds will be the site of the Central NC Pagan Pride Day Festival – one of several related festivals being held around the state. For them, it will be a day dedicated to both celebrating and educating people about various forms of paganism – earth religions, tradition witchcraft, magick, worship of the Aesir & Vanir, Wicca, and others. You can read about it in more detail at the festival website: http://www.ncpaganpride.org/.
For us, it will be a day of prayer. Cary Christian Church will begin a prayer service at 9:00 am and Mt. Zion will have a prayer service at 3pm. With area churches working together, we want to bathe the day in prayer. I also encourage members to pray on their own at various times throughout the day.
It is our intent not to involve the press/media in this at all. This is not an action of protest or of judgment - it's more like Abraham, standing on the hill, pleading with God on Sodom's behalf (Gen 18:16-33). Some of these are the most lost and most lonely, and evil has been preying on people like this since the beginning. BUT these are people Jesus died for, too. They are people who we would love to see turn to God and His family, rather than against us as the persecuting enemy. Let's surround them - literally - in prayer throughout Wake County and beg God throughout the day on their behalf.
A little light goes a long way. Please join us in this "Prayer for Light".
