That’s the heart of the Pray for Me Campaign, and we need YOU to make it happen!
This is your invitation to be a part of that change. Will you step up and be part of this movement? This is more than a program—it’s a calling. A simple commitment to pray can make an eternal difference in a child’s life. Sign up today and help us create a culture of prayer, connection, and life change in our church. Let’s link arms across generations and make this school year one covered in prayer! Sign up now!

USE THE BUTTON TO REGISTER AS: 1) A PRAYER CHAMPION, 2) A STUDENT (GRADES 6 - 12) TO BE PRAYED FOR, OR 3) A PARENT FOR YOUR KIDS TO BE PRAYED FOR
