Jesus was adamant

That his Father’s house would be called “a house of prayer.” God desires his people to be a praying people who voice their dependence upon him and their thankfulness to him. He has willed to do his work among his people in response to the prayers of his people. The early church was devoted to prayer, and they saw the power of God at work among them because of it. 



Prayer precedes power

We pray because God invites us to come to him and enjoy him as our Father, delighting in all that he is for us because of Jesus. But we also pray because we believe he is our Father in heaven with all power and authority. He is omnipotent and with him, all things are possible (Mark 10:27; Luke 1:37). As we look out at the brokenness around us and even inside of us, we are forced to face our need for the grace and renewing power of God. Prayer is how we express that need.

We're designating 48 hours of around-the-clock prayer as a church. We are asking you to sign up for an hour time slot during those 48 hours of continual prayer. You can come with family, people from your Life Group, or by yourself. There will be a special place at the church set up for prayer, along with stations and resources to guide you through an hour of intentional prayer.

Will you consider filling one of the slots by signing up today?

Advent, derived from "adventus" meaning "arrival," encompasses the four Sundays preceding Christmas, symbolizing anticipation for Jesus' birth and readiness for His Second Coming. This season marks the start of the Church calendar, prompting believers to engage in a timeless gospel rhythm.

Advent focuses on Jesus' incarnation, emphasizing the divine act of God becoming flesh as Emmanuel, God with us. It encourages a deliberate slowing down to connect with the authentic hope, love, and joy embodied in Jesus' gift. During this time, homes and hearts prepare for Christmas joy while acknowledging the profound significance of Jesus' arrival and the expectation of His return.
