We say we are a praying church. The 40 Days of Prayer, beginning August 22 with the LISD Prayer Walk, will give you an opportunity to practice prayer, to learn more about praying and to watch God work in His wondrous and grace-filled ways.
Throughout the 40 Days of Prayer, there are activities and studies planned to choose from. Please join in this time of renewal for yourself and the church. Check out all the details below:
