A Few AnnouncementsTomorrow, Monday Sept 8, we begin a new Bible stud on Prayer in the Scriptures! Join us at 1 p.m. each Monday as we work through both Old and New Testaments and how prayer was integral to the faith of those in the scriptures, and how prayer can be integral in our faith lives today!
