Cultivating Prayer - Family
Praying together strengthens the bond of the marriage. Prayer is also a way to seek God’s wisdom together. As you pray and come to agreements on matters, that discipline then builds unity and strength in the marriage. And prayer is also where you can fight for your marriage together when the difficult days come. Start today by saying a simple prayer together.

Here is your opportunity to share with everyone, that you belong to Jesus. If you would like to be baptized during the February 16th service, please sign up at HitTheRiver.com, on the Church Center app or at a kiosk next to the fireplace.

What is it that can make prayer difficult to engage in?

Above all else, I am to become a praying person.
