One of the best ways to discover and experience God’s ways is by intentionally spending time in prayer. We invite you to use this monthly prayer guide to join with us as we intentionally ask God to move in many ways this month. 

“Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! Let your gentleness be evident to all.
