• Special Wednesday Night Study on Prayer

  Please join us on Wednesday nights at 7:00pm beginning January 8th for a study on prayer. We will be applying the book titled "How to Pray" by R.A. Torrey. This book will be used to enhance our time of prayer. It is a "hands on" study so there will be much praying, lifting our voices in song, meditation on God's written word, and hopefully shared testimonies.

  Copies of the book are available for purchase through Amazon (just $.99 for Kindle-version), CBD, and other retailers. If you need help purchasing a book, please see Diana Franklin. If you have questions about the class, please see Scott Henderson.
