Thy Kingdom Come
Many churches across the country get involved in Thy Kingdom Come by holding an event linked to prayer and mission during the period between Ascension and Pentecost.
It might take the form of 24-7 prayer, virtual prayer meetings, or a Thy Kingdom Come-themed service on Pentecost Sunday, for example.

How will your church get involved?
Thy Kingdom Come is about helping churches to do what we are called to do by God - to pray for our communities and those in them to hear, experience and receive the Good News of Jesus.
Churches can get involved however they want, in any way that works for them.

Thy Kingdom Come is a global prayer movement that invites Christians around the world to pray for more people to come to know Jesus. What started in 2016 as an invitation from the Archbishops of Canterbury and York to the Church of England has grown into an international and ecumenical call to prayer.
Plans are underway for the 7th annual Thy Kingdom Come - occurring from Ascension to Pentecost.
Thy Kingdom Come takes place from 26 May to 5 June 2022.

‘We Seek Your Kingdom’
‘We Seek Your Kingdom’, a whole-life worship song to the tune of much-loved hymn ‘Abide withme’, written by Noel Robinson, Andy Flannagan, and Graham Hunter, inspires us to see our daily tasks through God’s eyes – and live out the prayer ‘your kingdom come’ in every part of life.
Commissioned by LICC and Thy Kingdom Come, it’s an encouragement and a call to action – a declaration that each of us can join in God’s kingdom work right where we are.And a prayer that through ordinary Christians like you and me, God would transform, revive, and heal our society.
