Pastors representing hundreds of Christian churches throughout metropolitan Richmond were to gather at Richmond Hill Feb. 16 to covenant to lead their congregations in praying a common list of topics for an entire year beginning March 5, 2006. The effort is known as Metropolitan Richmond at Prayer.
The Covenant of Prayer, which is being presented to over 1,000 Christian churches in metropolitan Richmond, has already been signed by several hundred pastors. The full number of participants will not be known until early March.
