Each month, our Prayer Ministry Team offers a specific prayer focus, working under the belief that communal prayer is a powerful and world-changing exercise.

August Prayer Focus
During August we will focus on praying for our teachers, students, and schools both public and private. In August let us bring our schools before God in prayer trusting in Him to make a difference in our schools for the sake of future generations.

This month let’s join in praying for the following:
