Power of Prayer


Recently in Bible Club, a young student shared a story with her class about witnessing God’s grace through prayer. She told the class that her mother had been praying for eight years that the young girl’s uncle would invite Jesus Christ into his life. The uncle was married to a Non-Christian woman and over time had strayed from his faith. As the young student continued to share her story, she explained that after the many prayers by her mother, God answered. The uncle recently started going to church again. It is amazing how a 3rd grader can see the change God has brought to her uncle’s life through prayer.


"Be joyful always; pray continually; give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus" (1 Thessalonians 5:16-18).
