SUMMER PRAYER MEETINGS NOW BEING HELD! |  | We need more people to wrestle in prayer for others! Will you be one of those people? If so, join Pastors Patty Bray and Kathy Brothers this summer! | We’ve been talking to people at Heritage who are sensing that the Holy Spirit is getting ready to do some amazing things among us - perhaps beyond anything we’ve yet experienced. It feels like we’re on the edge of a great movement of the Holy Spirit. But we also sense that God is calling His people to prayer in order to get ready for this movement of the Spirit – perhaps even to usher it in and speed its coming.
We want to respond to this call of God to prayer. Patty Bray and Kathy Brothers are hosting a prayer meetings from 6:30 to 7:30 p.m. where we’ll be seeking the Lord and asking Him to work in mighty ways in our lives, our families, our church, our community and our denomination. You may come any Wednesday that you’re available and you may stay for as little or as long as you can.
Whether you’re new at praying or have been praying for years, this is going to be a special time. Get ready to see God move among us in a significant way!
