From 7.30pm until 9.30pm at Bangsar Lutheran Church, people who care and are concerned for the nation can come for silent prayer, intercession and adoration anytime for however long or short moment within the timeframe we have dedicated for tonight.

Nothing fancy, no hype no hysteria . only a honest, humble and hopeful posture before God, and one another for the sake our ourselves, our children, our neighbors, our friends and our future!

For those who can join us it will be a good old fashioned face to face meeting, for those who can’t come physically then a virtual one online is welcome, or even organizing one at home with family (or wherever you are) . nothing can or has to stop us!

This prayer vigil is inspired by St. Francis Xavier’s Church and the following words ..

Our country enters the phase of naked display of aggression. When a regime is morally bankrupt it will use immoral means to hold on to power. We might be weak but we still have the power of prayer & silent witnessing. The unjust may break our bones but they can’t break our spirit.

- Rev. Fr. O.C. Lim, S.J.
