(Psalm 29:2, Psalm 95:6)

“Virtual” Bible Study on Wednesdays at 6:00 p.m.

Establish a daily time of reading and attend a Bible Study to learn more about Jesus and how God wants us to live.

PRAYER

It is simply just talking to GOD, communication. Why is it important? It helps to develop our relationship with GOD.

Prayer is the most powerful weapon God has given us. It's how we communicate with God.

Join us every Wednesday at 12pm as we pause wherever we are and pray

“Be Inspired” “Prayer is a powerful tool that you can use to change your life and the lives of others. Take time to pray. It works.”
