This month's Prayer and Praise will look a little different. We will begin at NOON on May 18 and go till NOON on May 19 - The Day of Pentecost - which in scripture is the day the disciples received the Holy Spirit. This also marks the promise that we too can have the Holy Spirit. Every 2 hours we will have a new worship leader lead us in worship, along with prayer prompts on different topics as we simply come to spend time in the presence of the Lord and seek Him.
