Time: 10:30 AM (All Day Event)
We are a global church family living and serving in communities all around our world. We invite you to join us as we unite our hearts in prayer by stepping out and praying for each of our own neighbourhoods! Use the prayer guide below throughout your prayerwalk as you discover how God is inviting you to See Differently in your neighbourhood.
We encourage you to look over the guide in advance. Take some time to read and pray about the themes of hope for your neighbourhood, and as you do so, select a few themes (or all of them!) to create into beautiful signs that you can hold up and takes pictures with on your prayerwalk. See our examples below!
Follow us on social media for more fun ways you can engage in the prayerwalk together with our church family!

As we continue to be inspired and challenged to See Differently, we’ll be joining together to watch and discuss the film LIFE JACKET.
LIFE JACKET is a powerful award winning documentary that takes us on a journey through some of the most traumatic times in the lives of refugees – from surviving the war to crossing the Aegean Sea trusting a simple life jacket to keep them safe as they hope to reach a safer future. Little do they know that they will end up in Moria Camp and live a different kind of ongoing trauma.
LIFE JACKET delivers the voices and screams of the refugees as they request their simple human rights; to be treated with respect and dignity, to have better living conditions, and to get the education they missed.
Register to join us today!
