Women’s Prayer Connection:
To Pray for Each Other and Build Strong Bonds of Friendship
The Women’s Ministry Team has experienced a strong leading from the Lord to help the adult women, college women, and teenage girls of GC2 build stronger connections with each other in prayer and in friendship. So, we are launching an opportunity for girls & women to commit to partnering in prayer for one another. Prayer partners can share, encourage, and pray, in person (how about coffee or lunch at the park?) or through media (email or text).
If you will commit to pray for another woman daily, and connect with her weekly, for three months, please read & complete the  Women’s Prayer Connection insert in this Sunday’s bulletin. Thus Sunday, January 22nd we will gather together all completed forms and draw random partners, then you will be notified of your prayer partner via e-mail.
