Join the Movement: Weekly Prayer Gatherings Beginning
May 1 Across the ELCA
“Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.”
— 1 Thessalonians 5:16–18
Beginning May 1, congregations across the ELCA—including here in the Grand Canyon Synod—are invited to join a growing movement of weekly, community prayer called
Pray Without Ceasing.
Here at Beautiful Savior we will join this event beginning officially Wednesday, May 14th between 9:00am and 12”00pm in the sanctuary. This will reoccur each Wednesday. This prayer event is a come and go event during that time frame. There will be prayer resources provided to help you through your prayer time. We invite you to come and be a part of this community prayer time.
The purpose of this prayer effort is to follow Jesus’ call to love our neighbors and to pray for neighbors in need. We are working to practice “faith active in love” for all our neighbors, not to take partisan sides. Our prayer is that by Pentecost Sunday on June 8, several communities in our synod and in each participating synod will have begun gathering weekly to Pray without Ceasing. How amazing that over the weeks, this number will continue to grow and multiply!
