Christ Church: Corvallis, OR

WEEK OF PRAYER | JUNE 8 – 14

In light of the acts of injustice and oppression in our nation we are urging you to join us in prayer. One on the simplest, yet profoundly powerful things that we can do to see change is pray. In prayer, we go directly to the God who made all people equals, and the One who can reconcile us together in His Son Jesus Christ. We are asking that you would join us by simply spending 10 minutes a day in prayer on the week of June 8^th – 14^th. We will be providing a few short prayer points for each day. We hope this helps to facilitate your time in prayer.
