Our dear Lord Jesus commands his followers to be a praying people. In all things we are encouraged to pray frankly, faithfully, and fervently. Prayer is one of the five marks we at Marion Methodist understand as critical to the life of a disciple. Prayer is when we “Speak to and Listen to God” and there are moments when we need to deliberately set aside or manufacture time for both.
For that purpose, the pastor has designed a “Week of Prayer” with essential opportunities and expressions of prayer the week of August 13th through August 20th. Each day will have a different target for our prayers or engage in a specific type of prayer. Please manipulate your schedule to accommodate at the very least one of these opportunities into your discipleship.
