VILLAGE prays

Welcome to Village Prays!

Village Church knows that prayer is the two-way communication with God that forms our relationship with Him. We are told “the effective prayer of a righteous person accomplishes much” (James 5:16). Therefore, we want to provide opportunities to pray individually and corporately – as well as to ask others to pray for specific prayer requests.

When We Gather

Sunday Prayer

Village Prays has people ready to pray for you following the service on Sunday mornings. Each Sunday several representatives from Village Prays will be available at the side of the stage to pray with you following the message each week.

Third Thursday

Village Prays meets corporately every third Thursday of the month in the Big Room of the Student Center from 6:30-7:30 p.m. If you cannot stay the whole time then that is fine. The doors are open for people to walk in, grab a prayer guide and pray on their own then leave. If you stay the whole evening then you will experience a time of private and corporate prayer along with a moment of praise led by Village Worship. This evening is a blessing and full of encouragement, prayer and support from the volunteers of Village Prays.
