Join us for a month of prayer and fasting through January.
Throughout the month, we are asking that you join together in praying for some shared prayer requests as well as personal requests you'd like to seek God about. We will be providing time for shared prayer each week, some space for personal prayer throughout the month, and a shared time of fasting. Here are some ways you can get involved and the shared requests we'd ask you to pray for.
Vision Prayer:
O God with all our hearts we long for you.
Come transform us to be Christ-centred, Spirit-empowered, Mission-focused people
multiplying disciples everywhere.
Lakewood Corporate Prayer Requests:
-
That we would understand and live out of our transformed identity in Christ. (Col.1.13-14)
-
That both of our Sunday services would be full by the end of 2025 of people becoming disciples of Jesus and experiencing authentic community with one another. (Mt.28.18-20)
-
That everyone at Lakewood would be filled and walk in step with the Holy Spirit. (Lk.11.13)
-
That we would see God’s Kingdom as our first priority, and not an add-on. (Mt.6.33)
