Prayer & Reflection Service
Sunday, September 27
You are invited to join us this Sunday, September 27, from 4:30 pm to 5:30 pm at Oakwood for a time of prayer, singing, and reflection as we seek God’s face in the light of social unrest in our community, our state, and our country. Our hope during this prayer time is that the Lord will bring us to a point of greater awareness of our sin, a deeper empathy for those who are hurting, and an ability to engage with each other and our community with the Good News of Jesus. We hope you will join us.
