There is a 24-7 prayer room opening up Sunday, March 9th to the 16th at Brentview Baptist Church (near the london drugs by the university). There actually hasn't been one for a really long time in Calgary, apart from the Global Day of Prayer ones and Urban Monastery ones which weren't publicized very much.
