Throughout this week, we will continue to build a culture of prayer at Calvary Church by offering corporate, small group, and individual prayer opportunities to intentionally mobilize our congregation to pray for specific needs and themes. Below, you will find the schedule for the week along with information about the special services and events.
To assist you in each day's prayer focus, we have put together a Prayer Guide. In it you will find daily opportunities as well as scripture to read and pray through each day.
PRAYER REQUESTS
We will take time this week to pray for the needs of our church body daily. If you have a prayer request, let us know.
You can submit your prayer request using the button below. We will have a prayer list available so others in the church can lift up your need and pray for you throughout the week.
24/7 PRAYER
We are seeking to be a unified community of believers, with hundreds of us mobilized and bound together in ceaseless prayer for 24 hours a day for seven days. We will be lifting up the needs of our church, our community, and our world to see God transform lives through His love, power and grace.
Choose one or more available time slots using the sign or in the Hazel Dell Campus Foyer.
Use the Prayer Guide (available March 16) to walk you through your prayer times.
