Prayer

When we pray it places everything we do before the infinite wisdom and strength of our Heavenly Father.

This means that we pray for every person, event and aspect of our church. Tap a button below to be involved in the prayer movement of Magnify or to make a request and leverage hundreds praying on your behalf.
