We will be inviting the Holy Spirit to lead and guide us throughout the day. Prayers for our churches, our Conference, our Jurisdiction and our personal lives – all are invited to the table to share your concerns, hopes, and dreams as we pray into the New Year. We will allow the Holy Spirit to guide and direct.

This will be an ongoing, 24-hour prayer vigil. Come and experience the Power of Prayer!
