Prayer in the Chapel
Every Sunday beginning at 7:45 am members of the congregation come together to share Holy Communion with the pastors and then continue to pray for all aspects of the day's services. The Chapel is open for prayer support and personal prayer from 8:00 am to 12:30 pm on Sundays.
Prayers of the People
During all our worship services, the church family lifts up requests for prayer and expressions of praise and joy. This is a regular part of our worship celebration.
