PRAY FIRST
A time to gather and pray.
PrayFirst is when our church family sets aside time to come together and pray — for the hurting, for those in need, and for the prayer requests people have shared with us. No performance, no pressure. Just people bringing real needs before Jesus.
Who it's for
Anyone who wants to pray — whether you've prayed out loud your whole life, or you've never done it before. Come as you are. You can pray, listen, or simply sit with others as we bring our requests to God.
Why it matters
Prayer is where we depend on God together. It's how we love the hurting, carry each other's burdens, and remember we're not doing life alone. We believe God hears and answers, and we want to be a church that prays first.
When you show up
- A simple, unhurried time of prayer
- Praying for people in our church and community
