Join Pastor Edmonds at the altar in our sanctuary for a powerful time of corporate prayer as we come together in faith, hope, and unity.

Together, we will lift up our community, pray for healing and wisdom across our nation, cover our elected leaders in prayer, comfort grieving families, and stand with those navigating the challenges of employment layoffs and uncertainty.

Come believing that prayer changes hearts, strengthens families, and brings light in difficult times.
