Prayer Ministry

Welcome to the Prayer Ministry

The Prayer Ministry is dedicated to reconciling, rebuilding, and restoring people to Jesus Christ through prayer, healing, and intercession. We cover the body of Christ daily and lift up those who have not yet joined the kingdom of God. Prayer is woven into the life of our church through morning calls, fasting, special gatherings, and personal ministry.

Our Story

Demonstrated by living our core values: compassion, growth, courage to act, responsibility, belonging, curiosity. You can see them cultivated in every experience for students, families and staff.

Community is everything. It’s who we are and how things get done. Everyone here is motivated by a deep commitment to making sure each child and family feels welcome and included. When everyone feels like they belong, we are stronger and smarter together. We’re a community driven to make the world a better place—starting in our own backyard.
