Excerpt from The Noon Prayer Meeting: North Dutch Church, Fulton Street, New York; Its Origin, Character and Progress, With Some of Its Results At the request of the Board of Publication, the following Letters in reference to this work, were kindly furnished by two of the most eminent and widely-known Divines in the Reformed Protestant Dutch Church. Letter of Rev. Dr. De Witt. The Volume prepared by my Colleague, the Rev. Dr. Chambers, entitled "The Noon Prayer Meeting," will doubtless attract the interest of the Christian public at large. It traces from the first institution of the Noon Day Prayer Meeting, in September, 1857, its onward progress and widening diffusion, with the blessed results which have followed. It has been carefully prepared, and full reliance may he placed upon the accuracy of its statements. It is hoped that it may be in some degree instrumental, under the Divine blessing, in cherishing and extending the religious influence now spread through our country.

Originally published in 1858, this classic volume recounts the remarkable history of New York City's Fulton Street Noon Prayer Meeting that sparked a revival throughout America and abroad. Full of remarkable stories of God's power to draw people to Himself, this first-hand account of the Noon Prayer Meeting not only tells what God has done in the past, but will raise your faith to new levels for what God will do in the future. This glimpse into history will give you new fervor to believe that God's power to bring His Kingdom to Earth will once again rain down on New York City and America in days to come. "It is amazing to consider that the location of the first of these meetings was in the exact vicinity where the World Trade Center recently stood-between West Street and Greenwich crossing at Fulton. The cry of 2 Chronicles 7:14 rings truer than ever: "If my people who are called by My name, will humble themselves and pray, seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, I will hear from heaven and heal their land." As you read this book allow God's Spirit to speak to your heart for our nation. Could it be that God intends to use the horrific attack of September 11, 2001 to bring revival from the rubble-from the same place He did in 1857?"
