"Devote yourselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful." — Colossians 4:2
Prayer Breakthrough: Tearing Down Walls Through Prayer - Making Room for More!
Friday, October 30 - Sunday, November 8, 2026
Our Prayer Breakthrough campaign is an invitation to seek God together as we pray for our church family, our community, and God's mission around the world. We believe prayer prepares the way for spiritual breakthrough, tears down barriers, strengthens relationships, and makes room for more people to encounter the transforming love of Jesus Christ.
Each day, we focus our prayers on three areas:
Our Jerusalem: Our church family, homes, and those closest to us.
Our Samaria: Our local communities, neighboring churches, schools, businesses, and first responders.
The Ends of the Earth: Missionaries, ministry leaders, churches, and God's work throughout the nations.
Our prayer: Lord, make us a people who pray boldly, love deeply, and create room for one more person to experience Your hope and transforming power!

Our Continuing Prayer Commitment
"For the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh but have divine power to destroy strongholds." - 2 Corinthians 10:4 (ESV)
As we continue Tearing Down Walls Through Prayer: Making Room for More, let us remember that prayer is not simply something we do; it is an essential part of how we participate in God's mission.
We pray for our Jerusalem, our Samaria, and the ends of the earth because God's heart extends beyond our walls, beyond our community, and into the world.
We pray until we see breakthrough!
