Pastor Carter Conlon, Times Square Church Will Stream Historic “Lord Forgive Us” Prayer Meeting from Plymouth, Mass.

Times Square Church will live stream its Worldwide Prayer Meeting from Plymouth, Massachusetts on Tuesday, Oct. 6 at 7 p.m. Pastor Carter Conlon, General Overseer of Times Square Church, will lead the prayer meeting.

Plymouth plays a significant role in the spiritual history of the United States. In 1620, the pilgrims who survived the first winter after arriving in Plymouth desperately prayed. They had little strength, no plan and were surrounded by enemies. All they had was a promise from God that they were being given a land where every person could worship Him freely and according to conscience.

God was faithful in bringing them here and giving them this land, but in 400 years, what have we done with the freedom He gave us?

“We took our freedom and enslaved an entire race of people,” says Conlon. “He prospered us as a nation, and we became greedy as a people. Our families are broken. Our children are being indoctrinated in schools starting from daycare. We have changed the definition of marriage. Our nation is unraveling. Our only hope for the future is God.”

“That’s why we’re going back, 400 years later, to where our nation began, to Lot #1, the very spot where it began, and we’re going to pray,” explains Conlon. “When we open the prayer meeting in Plymouth, we’re going to repent and ask God to forgive us for what we’ve done with the freedom He gave us. God told me we need to confess the sins of the nation one by one and ask for forgiveness.”

God showed Conlon that He made a covenant promise to the pilgrims who prayed in 1620 and that is why He wants us to pray from that place. “We are going to re-discover our roots and reclaim the promise of God that made America,” he said.

Conlon was led to visit Plymouth in 2019, where he met a couple who had been praying for a spiritual awakening in America and had been led of God to purchase Lot #1, the site of the house where the 51 pilgrims who landed on the Mayflower and survived the brutal winter of 1620, prayed and covenanted with God. The couple prayed and asked God if he could arrange for them to meet Carter Conlon. Conlon and his wife visited their house on Lot #1.

Conlon was so moved by the presence of God as they prayed in Lot #1, that he cried out to God that night. “Lord, why did you take me to that house? he asked, “We know this was a divine appointment…”

Some 400 years later, Conlon will be praying from Lot #1 in Plymouth, along with others, just as Solomon prayed from the new temple and asked God to have mercy on His people if they sinned against Him.

Times Square Church is inviting people and churches across the nation to gather online on Tuesday, October 6 at 7 p.m. EST, to pray and reclaim the covenant promise God made when the pilgrims prayed.

Conlon believes this is a pivotal moment for America: “We’re going to pray and we’re going to believe that God is going to resurrect this nation again. This prayer meeting is not our idea, this is a God-initiated moment in the history of this nation. The very future of America now depends on our prayers.
