FIRST SUNDAY PRAYER 

Prayer centers our hearts on God, prepares us for worship, and reminds us that we depend on Him in every season. On the first Sunday of each month, you are invited to arrive early and gather with us for unified prayer as a church family. Prayer begins at 9:15am at the Merrillville campus and 9:45am at the Portage campus. Come expectant, trusting that God meets us when we pray together.

WELCOME PARTY

Join us on March 1 after service at either our Portage or Merrillville campus. You will meet our team, hear the heart and vision of our church, and discover how you can get connected and grow.

 

This event is free, family friendly, and food will be provided.

Your next step starts here. We cannot wait to see you there.
