Start praying: Be bold and pray with power.
Dear Lord, I come before You with a grateful heart. My heart is full for the journey of faith that we share with one another. Help me to manage conflicts in a way that reflects Your love and grace, allowing me to grow closer and stronger as a community. Guide me to learn from past pitfalls, turning them into stepping stones for growth. Reveal to me the unique purpose and destiny You have planned, so I may walk confidently in it. And through it all, may I find joy and fulfillment in our faith. Amen.
Leader: Make time to pray for and with each other. Break into groups of three, take time for healing prayer or pray with individuals requesting prayer. This is important!
