Prayer

DAY OF PRAYER & FASTING

We dedicate the first Friday of every month to corporate, intentional prayer and fasting. Each day has a different focus, and we follow a prayer guide. We sign up for one or several prayer slots throughout the day. The day often ends with a neighbourhood prayer walk and dinner together in the neighbourhood to break our fast.

Join us for our upcoming Day of Prayer & Fasting!

DATES: February 2

2023 / 24 PRAYER PRIORITIES

The purpose of our Prayer Priorities is to help us to intentionally bring before the Lord those things which we believe He wants us to pray through in the year ahead. Our desire is Him, and Him alone. We leave the outcomes to Him but through our intentional prayer, we have an avenue to both draw closer to Him and learn to trust Him while we participate in what we believe He is doing.
