52 Week Prayer Project
Photo: goo.gl/Jl9e33 Hello Friends!
We are so excited to share with you our intentional prayer project for 2017! Our country (and world) is in such a state of confusion and brokenness and we often find ourselves without the answers to encourage those around us. We realized that our prayer lives could really use a boost this year so our collective resolution is to pray more intentionally. So we worked to create a list of weekly prayer topics to guide us in talking with Jesus regularly. We will blog through this journey (as regularly as possible) and invite you all to join us both in prayer and in effort to get to know Jesus more.
