There are lots of opportunities to pray together and we would like to invite you to be a part of any that you can participate in.

1. Pre-Service Prayer: We will pray BEFORE service in the Parent Room at 9 am. This prayer time is to connect in prayer together for the upcoming service, the Body of Christ, and Global Issues.

2. After-Service Prayer: Both male & female prayer leaders will be available in the front right corner of the STAGE following each service to pray with those in need of prayer.

3. Each week we take a few minutes to pray for the missionaries we support during service, but we hope that you will take some time out of your week to pray for them before and after service as well.

This week's mission's prayer is for John and Maggie Wenzel are serving at the Clubhouse in Puli, Taiwan.
