About Us

Community Prayer Projects

We currently have some ongoing community prayer projects.


Love Our Neighbors


The Love Our Neighbors project, working on healing all forms of discrimination in our community and our world. We're in the process of meeting with several community members/leaders to find effective ways to heal discrimination locally. We are also encouraging non-local members to identify and heal any forms of discrimination in their communities. For more info contact Shana Johnson: ​shanajohnson@yahoo.com


Climate Studies


The Climate Studies project, where members of the group study specific climate-related issues with the help of visiting experts to better understand how to pray about this important global issue.
