Prayer on Third Thursdays

“The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few.
Therefore, pray earnestly to the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into his harvest.”

- Jesus, Luke 10:2

We believe that apart from abiding in Jesus we can do nothing, and with a mission to see every ordinary believer become a disciple maker, it’s clear this goal won’t happen without Jesus making it possible.

That being said, there is incredible power in praying together with one heart, one mind, and one specific ask. Please join us in taking one day a month to pray for God to make this vision a reality.

Join us in focused prayer every Third Thursday.
