Prayer week is an opportunity to begin 2019 rooted in the life of God and the call to an ongoing conversion.
Check out the week's schedule for where you can participate and also create your own personal time for prayer.
24 hour prayer chain
(Monday- Tuesday)
Join the prayer chain! If you did not have a chance to sign up on the list, no matter - choose an hour and join in. You can pray right where you are, or make plans ahead of time to meet with the prayer companions of that hour. Either way, as you begin, pray for those who went before you, pray for those who are praying with you, and as you finish, pray for those who will be praying next. (See the prayer week guide for ideas of how to spend your hour of prayer).
