History

Call to Prayer has always been about unravelling the depths of God’s Word through teaching and prayer.

The Call to Prayer team was commissioned at the instigation of Transforming Norwich on 2 April 2008. Jane Holloway, National Prayer Director from the World Prayer Centre in Birmingham was guest speaker at the service, when she said that this was the first time in her experience that a prayer movement had received official recognition by the local body of Christ in this way.

In April 2009 we were awarded charitable status (Charity No 1127275). In January 2011 we took on the lease of St Edmund’s Church, Fishergate, from Norwich Historic Churches Trust.  The Bishop of Norwich, Graham James, and the Lord Mayor both attended our opening.

We are now ‘Light House Norwich’ – helping the body of Christ to encounter God and equipping the saints for works of service.
