Prayer

If you are too busy to pray then you are too busy. – W.E. Sangster

In this section you will find articles and resources that will help you develop a full and God centered prayer life.

We take seriously the Lord’s command that His Church be a house of prayer. Several prayer meetings are held each week, including men’s, women’s and mixed groups. On the right is a list of upcoming prayer meetings. They are open to all and we hope to see you at one or more this week!
