All About Prayer

How can I get prayer for my challenges?

• Simply fill out our prayer card below & we promise to pray within 24 hours of receiving your card. Someone can follow up and pray for you. The Bible says "Where two or three are gathered in my name, there am I with them" is a direct quote from Jesus in Matthew 18:20, promising Jesus's presence in small gatherings of believers for prayer and fellowship. We have a dedicated prayer team that gathers every day.

Who prays for me and what we believe about prayer?

• Our dedicated prayer team keep prayer requests private, by default -unless specifically asked by the requester to pray publicly. Our pastor also prays for your request. We believe what the Bible says about prayer. That is, a strong prayer life is the bedrock of every follower of Jesus.

Does God actually answer prayer? a

• Yes! Whatever you ask for in prayer, believe you have received it says Mark 11:24. Pray sincerely and believe it or not, there is power in group prayer, especially if those praying are believers that are righteous before God (James 5:16). Our team gathers every day and we promise to pray for your needs. We have witnessed great miracles from God healing a common cold to God raising the dead! Keep in mind, God answers prayer in many ways often differently-and better-than we imagine.
