PRAYER AND FASTING
We are inviting you to join us for a week of Prayer and Fasting. January 17th – 23rd, 2021
I have heard countless stories of the struggles that many are facing. For some it is financial, for some it is spiritual, and for others it is physical. Between COVID, racial and social tensions in our nation, concerns of injustice and a hostile political climate, there is an uneasiness and and uncertainty in the hearts of many. It is in these seasons that God calls us, more than ever, to pray. So let us pray
During this week we encourage you to: – Pray for our nation, state, community and family – Pray in the manner the Holy Spirit leads you – Set aside a specific time to pray each day
JOIN WITH US IN PRAYER EACH NIGHT FROM JANUARY 18TH-22ND AT 7 PM FOR 15 MINUTES TO PRAY TOGETHER
