God Hears Our Prayers

We are a praying church and have a team of people working diligently to pray for the needs of our congregation, community and world. If you would like to have our team praying for particular needs, please fill-out the form with your information and requests.

Your message will go to a leader of our prayer team. It will be kept private within the membership of the prayer team and will not be made public to the entire congregation. Depending on the nature of the request, it could be brought to the attention of one of our pastors.

If your request requires only individual attention, please make an appointment with one of our pastors at 559-485-6460.

We are a body of followers of Jesus Christ who are Reformed in our theology, Presbyterian in our polity (governance) and Passionate in our relationship with God.  We are in a time of transition to the Evangelical Presbyterian Church and look forward to what God has in store for this new partnership.  We believe that the Bible is God's Word and faithful witness to Jesus Christ as the Savior of humankind and hope of the world.
