Ayokunle to all Heads of Blocs that make up the Association, all National Officers, all Zonal Chairmen,  all State Chairmen and every Christian family in the country, the Prayer Chain will take place from 6 to 7 April 2020.

The 24 hours prayer chain is expected to hold from 6 am on Monday 6th to 6 am of Tuesday 7th April 2020 (24hours). It is expected that each church should divide all the congregating families into groups. Prayers are to be led by each family for a maximum period of Thirty (30) Minutes each.
