Whether one’s situation seems desperate or trivial, we believe God is interested in our asking for His help and guidance in every matter and that He uses our difficulties as opportunities for us to develop trust and to overcome hindrances in our spiritual lives.

Altar Prayer Team members are available at our services to assist all who seek prayer for any reason. All conversations remain confidential.
