Our Church

In a post-pandemic world, now more than ever, we recognize the value of human connection and doing life together. What better place for people to find community and develop no-strings personal relationships than within the Church; what other organization creates a space solely for people to connect? In today’s world, the church can be a lifeline for the lost and the lonely.

We can see the assignment of the Church in the world, and attached to that is our assignment as an engaged partner with our home church. The church is an empty space without its people carrying out the work and will of God, and YOU are a vital part of that operation. As you pray and fast this month, seek strategies to actively engage in the church’s mission this year: building community, serving, and worshiping.

PRAYER:

Thank you, Father, for my church. I pray for strength for the church body, its pastors, and its leaders. Let our church be an example of your love for all to see, and show me my specific role within your church. You haven’t called us to do life alone, so I thank you for my church family. As I worship alongside those different from me, open my eyes to see them as You do. Let the relationships here flourish across cultures, ages, and demographics, built on the common foundation of love for You. Help me to learn where I should and lead where I can. Thank you for placing me exactly where You have me for such a time as this. Use me as a part of Your church in this community to be a light for You.
