April 30, 2019: A Sacred Assembly in Your Church
Prior to the sacred assembly obtain permission and encouragement
from the shepherd of your flock, your pastor or priest. Encourage him
to begin his own repentance process even in advance of April 30, 2019.
He will then call for a service on April 30 for a given number of hours,
and will encourage all members of the congregation to attend. The
service as he and Holy Spirit put it together may include times of
worship, prayer, confession of sins privately or with one another, and
times for personal and national repentance.
The invitation to the Sacred Assembly should also include an instruction
to participants to fast that day and not work.
Some suggestions for the service include:

Reading of certain Scriptures on repentance, for example : Psalm 51;
1 John 3:1-3; 1 Peter 2:4-10; Revelation chapters 2 and 3; Hebrews
12:3-14; 2 Corinthians 7:1; 1 Thessalonians 4:1-8
