Worship & Prayer Night – Aug 28
Get ready for a worship & prayer night on Wednesday, August 28. This will be hosted in the back parking lot of the church from 7pm-8:30pm. We would ask you to bring a lawn chair and to dress for the weather. We are currently in a sermon series on Acts exploring church struggle and one of the ways we, as a church, are called to respond is through prayer and worship. As such, we would like to invite you out to spend time worshipping and praying for the global and local churches as we begin another ministry year. Looking forward to an impactful evening.
