The Upper Room is a Kingdom Based Prayer Room. Centered on the Christian Faith. Woodstock ON. N4S 1B8. Woodstock in the last couple of years has gotten nationwide media attention due to a large number of teenage suicides. As well as a large number of seniors who were purposely overmedicated leading to their deaths. Revealing an underlying darkness that has oppressed Woodstock. Woodstock statistica
lly has been in the top percentiles for suicide, depression, teenage pregnancies, domestic violence, drugs etc. A prophetic vision of a Prayer Room came out of this reality. Only God can deliver Woodstock from this oppression. The foundation was based on 40 days of uninterrupted 24/7 prayer. (Time was taken aside to attend church Sunday morning)
It is now been scaled back to keep it vibrant. Open a couple hours morning, noon, and night from Monday to Saturday. As well as Sunday evening. Sunday evening are usually a time of sharing, testimonies, a word, worship. Where ever the spirit takes us. The quiet prayer room is still available. We are non-denominationial inviting and encouraging all the different ways that Christian faith connects with God. The Upper Room facilitates a quiet place for personal prayer. We also have Seasoned Prayer Persons available to pray with you and for you. We have times of Corporate Prayer for the City, the Youth, and just times of Corporate Intercession. We have prayer requests given to us daily, which we pass on to our network to intercede for daily. God’s House is a house of Prayer. Out of this the Apostolic and Prophetic visions and strategies with emerge. As long as we keep Jesus firmly in place as our cornerstone. Out of these visions and strategies will and have come Prayer walks, Special Speakers/Conferences, Repentance, Declaration and Decreeing etc. As we move forward (we are still laying the foundation) using the principles and practices of Acts as we seek the Lord is the standard we will follow. Social Media did not exist during the time of the Early Church. Foundations are Key!!! So as we venture out into this area of Social Media, Bear with us as we will be taking it slowly as we seek the Holy Spirit as to how this looks. Again Foundations are key!!! Once they are built can be very painful to replace. The verse that I see as direction at this point in journey is Zechariah 3:7
Thus says the Lord of hosts, ‘If you will walk in My ways [that is, remain faithful] and perform My service, then you will also govern My house and have charge of My courts, and I will give you free access [to My presence] among these who are standing here. (Amplified)
“My house” being “My House of Prayer”. We need his courts, We need his presence to bring his glory, his justice and mercy, his Kingdom, in Woodstock (and beyond). Monday to Saturday 9:00-11:00 am
