New policy for Pray Requests: In an attempt to keep our pray requests current we will leave a request on our lists for 3 weeks unless we have been given an update to let us know that the individual still needs prayer. We do not always get an update on the condition of these individuals which results in our list of pray request only growing and people tend to not look at it because of its daunting length. Our church believes in the power of pray! We want to pray for each other’s needs so please understand the goal in this is being able to do this effectively. Thank you for your understanding.
