PRAYER AT THE PYLONS

This is a self guided time of prayer in which you are encouraged to pray however is most comfortable for you and you are welcome to stay for as long as you would like. Pray out loud, in silence, standing, sitting, walking, alone, or with other people. However you choose to pray, we thank you for uniting with other believers in praying for our campus and community. On the backside we have included prayer prompts for this time and each gathering will have different topics.
