The Power of Prayer


"Hear my prayer, O Lord: listen to my cry for mercy. In the day of my trouble I will call to you, for you will answer me..." (Psalm 86:6-7)


Our weakness makes room for his power, when we go to Him in prayer. He knows our every want and need. Hopelessness can be turned into hope through prayer. God is pleased when he sees His people in prayer; it is the barometer of the church. Make a vow to pray more in this year for your own concerns...

Prayer Chain

A weekly "Tuesday Report" is emailed out to our chain of church members. It includes a list of all the prayer concerns and praises from Sunday's Worship.

Your concern/praise will be raised in prayer throughout the week. 

Pit Crew

One of the first places to start in building a church into a house of prayer is with prayer for the pastor and his family. Many think pastors have few problems, and they mistakenly believe that people in full-time Christian service have special favor with God that protects them from the ordinary difficulties of life. But, pastors experience all the same difficulties as their church members do, plus they have the incredibly demanding job of leading a church.
