Prayer Night

Prayer Night

November 6 From 6:00pm-7:15pm
Santa Cruz Community Church

Prayer isn’t just something we do—it’s how we commune with God and care for one another. It keeps us dependent on Him, aligns us with His will, and unites us as His people. When we gather to pray, we remind one another that we are part of God’s family and have a role in His mission.

Join us on November 6th as we come together to praise God, lift up each other’s needs, and pray for the furthering of the Gospel in Santa Cruz. Dinner and childcare will be provided.

Come ready to be encouraged, to encourage others, and to seek the Lord together.

“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
