Join Us In 52 Weeks Of Prayer

Each week during our prayer time we will highlight a specific group in our community (local law enforcement, schools, hospitals, military, government leaders, foster care/DCS, farmers, missionaries, etc.) as is an intentional way for our congregation to remain prayerful, outwardly focused, and unified as we intercede for our community and beyond.

This week in our 52-Week Prayer Focus, we are lifting up one of the missionaries and mission organizations we support. We are grateful for the ways God is working not just in our community, but around the world—through people and ministries faithfully serving in His name.

This week, we are praying for Fortville Police Department and the McCordsville Police Department.

The Fortville Police Department is led by Chief Patrick Bratton, and the McCordsville Police Department is led by Chief Paul Casey. These officers and their families carry significant responsibilities every day. They are often called into difficult situations, make critical decisions under pressure, and work long hours to keep our communities safe.

As followers of Christ, we are called to pray for those in authority and for those who serve our communities. This week, let's intentionally lift up these departments and the men and women who faithfully serve within them.

"Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called sons of God."— Matthew 5:9
