The 10-Hour prayer stretch takes place every Saturday from 8am to 6pm @3470 Silverleaf Ave, North Pole AK 99705

The 10-hour prayer is practiced individually. It is praying for 10 hours in tongues or in the spirit, in the company of others who are in attendance. It could be one, two or more people in attendance. The Bible says in Matthew 18:20, “For where two or three are gathered together in my name, I am there in the midst of them”. 

The 10 Hour prayer stretch is open to anyone who wants to exercise, edify or build themselves up in the spirit like the scriptures say. “He who speaks in a tongue edifies himself”-1 Corinthians 14:4. “If I pray in a tongue, my spirit prays, but my understanding is unfruitful. What is the conclusion then? I will pray with the spirit, and I will also pray with the understanding. I will sing with the spirit, and I will also sing with the understanding” -I Corinthians 14: 14 – 16. “But you, beloved, building yourselves up on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Spirit” – Jude 1:20. “Likewise the Spirit also helps in our weaknesses. For we do not know what we should pray for as we ought, but the Spirit Himself makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. Now he who searches the hearts knows what the mind of the Spirit is, because He makes intercession for the saints according to the will of God” – Romans 8:26- 27. “Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, being watchful to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints” – Ephesians 6: 18.

ABOUT US

Dr. Andrew and his wife Joyce Kirya, are the founders of Kingdom Increase Ministries, a 501 (c) (3) non – profit religious organization based in Alaska, USA. The name of the ministry “Kingdom Increase” was birthed into Pastor Andrew’s heart from Isaiah 9:7 which says, “Of the increase of His government and peace there will be no end, upon the throne of David and over His kingdom, to order it and establish it with judgement and justice from this time forward, even forever. The zeal of the Lord of hosts will perform this.” In the New Testament, Angel Gabriel’s message to Mary about the birth of our Lord and savior Jesus Christ in Luke 1:32-33 says, “He will be great and will be called the son of the highest; and the Lord God will give Him the throne of His father David. And He will reign over the house of Jacob forever, and of His kingdom there will be no end.” The vision of Kingdom Increase Ministries is to advance the Gospel of God’s kingdom in His power to all Nations and equip believers according to Matthew 24: 14, 28: 18 -20; Ephesians 4: 11 -16. The mission of Kingdom Increase Ministries is for every believer in Jesus Christ to live in the reality of God’s kingdom, rule and power in their Day- to-day life. Secondly, that God’s kingdom increase in and through their lives here on earth according to Isaiah 61:1-3 which says, “The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon Me, Because the LORD has anointed me to preach good tidings to the poor; He has sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to those who are bound; to proclaim the acceptable year of the LORD, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all who mourn, to console those who mourn in Zion, to give them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they may be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that He may be glorified.”

Dr. Andrew and Joyce have three children; Andrea, Josiah, and Jonathan. They are originally from Uganda, East Africa. Dr. Andrew Kirya was a teenager when he got born again and God called him to the ministry. Dr. Andrew has served the Lord for several years in various leadership and ministry roles in Uganda and other nations. In Uganda he served as senior Pastor, Bible school teacher, church planter, just to mention a few roles. He served as a missionary in London (United Kingdom) in a church planting venture. Him and his wife served together as missionaries in Singapore (Asia). He has also ministered in Colombia (South America) and Haiti (Caribbean).

In the USA, Dr. Andrew Kirya has ministered in Massachusetts, Maryland, North Carolina, Arizona, Florida, and New York City where he used to reside before moving to the State of Alaska, where the ministry is now based.

Over the years to the present, Dr. Andrew Kirya continues to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ, equipping believers and ministering all over the State of Alaska in several Native villages and cities.
