40 Days of Prayer

be still 40 daysHello Impact family and friends!  Concurrent with our worship series called ‘Be Still and Know,’ our Impact family has begun a 40-day period of prayer using great prayers of the bible.  Please join us as we together pray a different biblical prayer every day for the next 40 days.

Meditate on it silently, and read it several times if needed. Then pray as the biblical prayer motivates you, as we experience the power of prayer and of praying together as a family and as a community.  And post your comments on how the experience has moved you!
