Christians praying as Parliament debates same-sex marriage


Christians are praying outside Parliament on Monday and Tuesday as the Marriage (Same Sex Couples) Bill has its Third Reading.

The prayer meetings have been organised by campaign group Christian Concern, which opposes any change to the law on marriage.

The gatherings are taking place on both days from 12pm to 2pm and 5pm to 7pm in Old Palace Yard, opposite the Houses of Parliament.

The call to prayer is being supported by Jonathan Oloyede, Convener of the National Day of Prayer, which brought 30,000 Christians to Wembley Stadium for a day of prayer for the nation last year. Read more
