24-Hour Prayer Event On Sunday, February 13, prayer request cards will be distributed at each service. Everyone is encouraged to fill out one card, listing specific needs. These can be matters of health, finances, personal relationships, jobs…whatever is on your heart and mind. A 24-Hour Prayer Event will be held at the Oak Bridge Center beginning 6:00 pm Friday, Feb 18th and ending at 6:00 pm Saturday, Feb. 19th. During this 24-hour period people will pray over the request cards in hourly increments. We will also be praying for the future of Oak Bridge, its people and ministries. Please consider setting aside one hour of your time to join us in prayer. There will areas for quiet contemplation, areas for individual prayer and for group prayer. You are not limited to praying over the request cards and praying out loud is NOT required. We encourage you to come pray not only as individuals but to consider bringing your family, small group and ministry team members. A sign-up sheet is out in the lobby. Signing up for a specific slot of time is not required but encouraged. You will be amazed how quickly the time passes, and we promise you will be blessed as you lift your prayers to the Maker of heaven and earth.
