A CORPORATE CALL TO PRAYER
Acts 4:31 tells of God’s empowerment of the Early Church in response to corporate prayer. We seek such divine enabling in our church family’s mission and invite all to engage in daily prayer for such at 4:31 p.m. Set a reminder and pray.
​​​​
The suggested sentence prayer for this week:
Gracious God, you have given us your Son to be our Shepherd. Through his sacrificial death and resurrection life, he heals our wounds, supplies our needs, and shows us the way. Spirit, cause us to know him who calls us each by name, and enable us to follow as he leads. Amen.
