Impact Day is this Saturday, and we’re excited! This is an opportunity we take each year to Impact our local communities and show the love of Christ in a real and tangible way. Below are photos from our previous Impact Days, as well as a video from one of our previous years. Without you, we wouldn’t have these photos to capture what God is doing around Broward, and we need your help to capture these moments again this year! We encourage you to please take photos and videos, and send them to us!

]]> Prayer for Las Vegas

Once again we are shaken as a nation with the atrocities that have taken place in Las Vegas, Nevada.

We are praying for healing for those critically wounded and for the family members of those who have lost loved ones. As a Church, we stand in prayer of intercession for the state of our nation in its spiritual and moral depravity. Yet we believe in a God who still heals, redeems and restores to the utmost.

Lord, cause your presence, your hope, your love and your power to penetrate our nation. May the Light of your Truth not be hidden or dimmed in these days but set it ablaze with increasing power and demonstration. Starting in us, cause your Light to pierce and continue to transform hearts of mankind for your glory. Amen.
