Prayer is powerful.
It connects us to the heart of God, strengthens us in every season, and reminds us we are never alone.

How can we pray for you today?

“But he was pierced for our transgressions,
he was crushed for our iniquities;
upon him was the chastisement that brought us peace,
and with his wounds we are healed.”

Isaiah 53:5 (ESV)

On Maundy Thursday, we remember the night Jesus shared His Last Supper with His disciples, humbly washed their feet, and gave a new command: 'Love one another, as I have loved you.'

As we prepare our hearts for Good Friday, may we walk in the humility and love of Christ.
