Magalies mountain prayer back again

The monthly prayer meeting is back following the relaxation of lockdown regulations.

Moot residents were invited to attend the monthly Magalies mountain prayer to pray for an end to crime, domestic violence and drug and alcohol abuse in the area.

“We will hold our next monthly prayer, which is open to all community members, on 10 April 2021 at the Magalies mountain from 16:30 to 18:00,” said event organiser Len Weyers.

Those interested in attending may access the venue through the gate located on the dead-end 30th Avenue, towards the Magalies mountain, near John Vorster high school.

This will be the second monthly prayer since the first meeting in November last year, as sessions were put on hold in December following the lockdown announcement, which forbade any gatherings.

This prompted the organisers to put the event on hold until further notice.

Weyers, who is also a full-time gospel minister, said they felt that several households were damaged in the Moot area and the best possible solution to the problem was to deal with it at its roots.

“The prayer in the mountain will be about bringing Godly order back into society and addressing the problem at the roots.”

According to Weyers, many families are fragmented, which is one of the reasons children in primary and secondary schools use drugs.

He said bringing back family values and ensuring that fathers play their role of serving their children and wives with love and responsibility will rebuild families.

Fathers neglect their families for various reasons such as “losing their jobs, fear for the future and crime”, he said.

He invited all believers of Christ to come to pray for the restoration of families and a better Moot.

The gatherings will include praise and worship, prayer and sharing the Word of God.

Regarding security, Weyers said car guards would be available.
