Thursday, May 1 is the National Day of Prayer.  You are invited to join in this important ministry of all disciples, especially when our nation is struggling with so many issues.  There are two ways you can join in this call to prayer:

On your own at home or wherever you are around noon

Or, come to the church sanctuary to pray with others in a half-hour prayer service.

Either way, we hope you will sign-up at the church after worship services to receive materials to help in prayer and so that you will receive a reminder to pray.  For more information, please contact Rev. Matt Colby
