Amped 450 Prayer | Sundays | 4:50 pm | The Loft

Some of the most powerful and inspiring prayers come from youth! That's why we're adding the element of group prayer to our weekly gathering! Students in 6th through 12th grade will learn about the incredible things that happen when they praise God and humbly ask for His intervention through prayer. We'll also learn how to pray and lift one another up as a community. Amped 450 Prayer takes place every Sunday (that we have Amped gatherings) at 4:50 pm in The Loft. We hope to see you there!
