Soso sends invite for national prayer day

 EASTERN Highlands governor Julie Soso is inviting church elders around the country to be part of the “biggest ever National Repentance Day” celebration in Goroka on Aug 26.

Soso said preparations were underway for the event and all churches around the country were welcomed to Goroka and join hands in prayer.

“We will be hosting a big prayer day event in Goroka and I will be sending an invite to all the church elders in the country to come to Eastern Highlands for this event,” she said.

“All groups and ministries are welcomed to come. They can liaise with our organisations.”

She said PNG was a Christian country and the event would showcase the force of unity among all denominations. They will pray for the nation, the development boom and the increase in violent crimes. “We must pray that negative behaviours change,” she said.

“Papua New Guineans are so blessed – we have surplus of resources including fertile land, minerals, cash crops and many more.

“God has richly blessed us and we have no reason to say we are poor or hungry or compare ourselves to people suffering in Africa.”
