Pre-service Prayer on Sundays

Gathering in Prayer: Strengthening Our Church Family Before Service
Before the music begins and the message is preached, something sacred happens at our church: we come together in pre-service prayer. It’s not just a routine—it’s a powerful act of unity, faith, and preparation that sets the tone for everything that follows.
Why We Pray Together
There’s strength in shared prayer. When we, as the body of Christ, kneel before God together, we declare that our worship is not about performance or spectacle—it’s about seeking His presence as one family.
Unity in the Spirit
The early church modeled this beautifully. Acts 1:14 tells us, “They all joined together constantly in prayer...” They didn't wait for the main service—they sought God together, trusting Him to move. When we gather before service, we continue this legacy of unity, asking God to move in our midst, soften hearts, and align our minds with His will.
Praying with Expectation
We believe that prayer opens the heavens. James 5:16 reminds us, “The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective.” So we don't pray out of obligation—we pray with expectation. We ask for healing, for salvation, for joy to rise up in weary hearts, and for the Holy Spirit to transform lives.
You’re Invited
Whether you’re a longtime member or visiting for the first time, we invite you to join us for pre-service prayer. Bring your hopes, your burdens, your gratitude—and join hands (spiritually and literally!) with your church family as we call on the name of the Lord.
Let’s be a church that doesn’t just attend services but prepares the way in prayer. Because when we pray together, we grow together.
