Lent PRAYER FOCUS

* Due to public health concerns due to Covid-19, we will be gathering virtually for Prayer Chrysalis and the church-wide prayer gathering.

The season of “Lent” in the church is traditionally a time of self-examination and repentance, as we walk towards Good Friday and Easter, the cross and resurrection.  This year MCC is setting aside Lent as a special season of prayer. We’ve created three ways you can dive into prayer and cultivate intimacy with Jesus.  

1. 40 Days of Prayer Devotional:  This is a simple scripture based devotional developed by Don Barton to guide our prayers together.  There are scripture verses selected for each day leading to Easter. This begins 2/26.

An online copy of the devotional came by found here.

2. Prayer Chrysalis: This is a seven week prayer course that will run from 6-7pm on Thursdays during Lent. Topics include listening prayer, intercessory prayer, prayer and fasting, healing prayer among others.  This is open to all, regardless of experience in prayer -- we are all learners. The group will meet at MCC in Pearson Hall. Contact Don Barton if you are interested in joining or have questions: cell 209-404-0395 evening and weekend 209-845-2170. 

3. Church-wide Prayer: All are invited to join in church wide prayer, immediately following the Prayer Chrysalis course from 7-8 PM in Pearson Hall.
