Prayer Service

God responds to (and works in the earth) through the prayers of His people. He is able to do more than we can ask or even think. Join us at 6 pm every first Wednesday of the month, as we come together in thanksgiving, prayer and song to worship God and bring Him our cares and concerns, knowing that He hears the prayers of His people.
