Return Women’s Event March 3
Women, please join us on Saturday, March 3, from 9–11:30am as we spend the morning focusing on prayer. Sylvia Wineland will be giving us a unique perspective on why prayer is not just a good suggestion, but rather, vital to our everyday life as believers. Then together we will worship our great Savior! Join us for a time of seeking our Almighty Creator, growing in genuine community, and reflecting on where our hearts are really at. In our busy culture, we are praying you’ll consider gathering with us for a time that could change your perspective on prayer and truly see why it is essential in our walk with God.
