Other Community Events 

Prayer Works  It’s one of the most meaningful, thoughtful, powerful things you can do. Nothing makes a difference more. . . than prayer. If you’re looking for some encouragement today, or to help someone through prayer, check out our brand new page called “Prayer Works.”  It’s not just a prayer request site, it’s a prayer community. So when you post a request, others who are looking to pray will see it. And you’ll know you’ve been prayed for, because you’ll get an e-mail and might even get a note of encouragement from the one who prayed for you. Remember, things happen when we come together and pray. (copied from wmhk.com)
