Rejected petition BORIS JOHNSON TO CALL FOR A NATIONAL DAY OF PRAYER IN REGARDS TO COVID-19
Our Prime Minister is an evangelical Christian. He once described his faith in exactly the same way as many of us may be feeling in light of COVID-19.
"I mean sometimes the signal is strong, and then sometimes I'm afraid it just vanishes. And then it comes back again."
More details
Our Prime Minister Boris Johnson is known to be an evangelical Christian. He is very supportive of faith groups and Christian organisations.
Irrespective of ones religious views, the fact is that every day Parliament begins prayers, for Her Majesty and indeed for all politicians, that they should govern justly.
I would like our Prime minister to set a National day of prayer in regards to the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, for God to intervene & heal our nation.
