We have officially begun our Rise, Together journey! Over the weeks ahead, we’ll reflect on what it means to deepen community, neighbor well, and steward the legacy God has entrusted to us.
As part of this season, we invite you to join a daily rhythm of prayer. Simple prompts to help us pause, seek God’s presence, and lift our community in faith together.
Text “RISE” to 407-634-1703 to receive a text of these prayers each morning.

Jesus, You know our needs before we ask. Today, we choose to trust You as our provider. Teach us to depend on You, not just in our giving, but in every area of our lives. May our faith spark courage in others as we walk in step with You. Amen.

“Carry each other’s burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ.” Galatians 6:2
Lord, deepen our love for Your Church. Not a building, but a people. Help us see one another as brothers and sisters, not strangers. Heal past hurts and unite us in purpose. Let us gather not out of habit but out of hunger—for You and for each other. Amen.

“And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds… encouraging one another—and all the more as you see the Day approaching.” Hebrews 10:24-25
Jesus, make us agents of healing and reconciliation. If there are broken relationships in our church, start the restoration with us. Teach us to forgive, to listen, and to lead with grace. May the way we love one another draw others to You. Heal us so we can risetogether. Amen.

“Above all, love each other deeply… Offer hospitality to one another… use whatever gift you have received to serve others.” 1 Peter 4:8-10
God, fill us with Your Spirit today. Empower us to be encouragers, not critics. Help us call out the good in one another. Use our words to build up rather than tear down. Make our church a place where everyone feels seen, valued, and loved. Amen.
