2X24 Prayer
Our desire is to become a church that prays without ceasing. This Easter, we're living it out through 2x24 prayer. We are covering the space between Good Friday and Easter Sunday with 48, one-hour prayer slots. We're asking for people to spend an hour at home in prayer that God would move in our day, and that the good news of Jesus' victory over death would transform lives.
