Prayer Room
In Person
Our prayer room is centrally located off the Foyer near the Worship Center. It is available when the church is open for worship and scheduled prayer times during the week. There is an exterior door that is unlocked during the day where you may come and spend quiet time in prayer.

As a church, we will begin to pray together every Friday at 7:00am via Zoom. We will pray through scripture, for our church, our country, and the world.
