Scottish Prayer Room: 'Astonishing'Pete Greig - 13 Apr 2009
'Our 24-7 prayer room is just astonishing,' reports Debbie Meehan, from Scotland. 'Over 100 people of all ages have signed up to use the prayer room, and they are just being blown away by the whole experience. Many have said that they have felt the tangible presence of God in the room, and say either that it feels like they were only there 5 minutes or that it's like a 5 hour massage!
'The walls are covered with prayers and prophecies - we're going to transcribe them all and distribute them round the church. We've had healings - physical, emotional and spiritual.
I Don't want it to stop - I've told my husband that we never use the dining room anyway!
'I long to be part of whatever God's doing; encouraging the next generation of leaders. That’s why I am so grateful to God for 24-7: we’re here seeing people just blown away by prayer!'
