What is Prayer?
  • Prayer is communion with God.
  • Prayer is the voice of faith.
  • Prayer is the upward glance to God.
  • Prayer is an offering of our desires unto God for things agreeable to His will, with confession of our sins and thankful acknowledgement of His mercies.
  • Prayer is the opening of the heart to God as to a friend.
  • It is not necessary to tell God who we are, but we should enable ourselves to receive Him.
  • Prayer does not bring God down to us; it brings us up to Him.
    The Wednesday night meetings are for all who wish to attend. You are invited to come and be blessed.
