We pray especially for those you’ve called into ministry, to be leaders, teachers, discipleship and friends in our church and community. Keep God’s word fresh in their hearts, renewing and refreshing their spirit for their work ahead. May they seek your counsel daily, give them godly wisdom day by day as they tackle their designated ministry work and guide them as they give spiritual guidance to others around them… Amen.
It is our desire to come alongside parents in order to supplement their God-given task to raising their children to personally know and love Christ, and then help them live a God-centered life. As well as, to Impact the families in our communities, as we Reach, Teach and Serve by showing the love of Chris
