New Hope Baptist to host Bring Back the Prodigals prayer event Saturday

New Hope Baptist Church in Fayetteville will be the location for metro Atlanta's "Bring Back the Prodigals," a day of prayer and revival focused on asking God for loved ones who have wandered from Christianity and family. The event will be held at New Hope's north campus on Saturday, Oct. 20, from 2-4:30 p.m. and 6:30-8:30 p.m.

Ian and Pauline Cole, of the World Prayer Center in England, will lead the the day of prayer which is a cooperative effort of area churches and parachurch organizations.

The day's schedule includes praise, worship and prayer from 2-4:30 p.m., a break for dinner (responsibility of the participants), and a prayer rally from 6:30-8:30 p.m.

The Coles are members of Pray for Revival, a national prayer ministry in England. Their first Bring Back the Prodigals day was held in Birmingham, England, in 1998. Four thousand people spent the day asking God to work in the lives of their prodigal loved ones.

New Hope Baptist Church is located at 551 New Hope Road, Fayetteville. For more information, call Marion Ferencz at 770-460-4851 or send an e-mail to marionf@newhopebc.org.
