About the event
The name “Concert of Prayer” is a term coined by Johnathan Edwards in the 1700s that described the prayer meetings that sparked the First Great Awakening in our nation. He defined these gatherings as “A visible expression of unity and explicit agreement for revival and advancement of the Kingdom of God.”
At the Concert of Prayer, we join with congregations from all across Columbus to intercede for our city. This special service of united prayer includes scripture reading in multiple languages, worship, small group prayer, and prayer led by pastors and leaders in our communities. Since 2014, these annual gatherings have brought together over 350 congregations and countless leaders from diverse spheres, ethnicities and denominations. As we intercede together for the flourishing peace of central Ohio, we echo Jesus’ prayer in John 17:20-23 to make us one so the world will know He is Lord.
