Welcome to the prayer course | Session 2 ADORATION

The Prayer Course is underway and we’re excited to see how God will deepen our relationship with Jesus and with one another as we put prayer at the center of our life together. As we get ready for Session 2, remember Pete Greig’s main points from Session 1, “Keep it simple, keep it real and keep it up.”

This update includes some helpful information about Session 2, which launches the week of January 15, 2023. Get ready to learn more about praising and thanking our generous, good, loving and gracious God.
