Prayer Ministry
We invite you to join us in prayer for our weekly prayer focus areas. We choose a verse, a praise and/or thanks focus, a missions emphasis, a request for the church, and a prayer for our nation.
We also partner in prayer walks, and are seeking additional members who will commit to praying through the services or specific areas of ministry.
