As followers of Jesus we believe that prayer is essential to a healthy relationship with God. It’s a lifestyle we’ve been called to. Jesus declared that His house would be a House of Prayer
(Matthew 21:13)
online prayer
Tuesday Nights | 8pm
As we start this new year, we've decided to pause our usual weekly prayer gatherings and instead run a 40-minute online prayer session every Tuesday evening at 8pm. We truly believe in the power of praying together as a church family, and we also recognise that work, family life, and full schedules can make it hard to get to an in-person midweek gathering.
Our hope is that this online space makes prayer more accessible for everyone—wherever you are and however your week looks.
If you don't usually attend a prayer gathering, we'd really encourage you to give it a go in 2026. Your prayers matter, and they make a difference
Why Fast?
Fasting is a spiritual discipline that is taught in the Bible. Jesus expected His followers to fast, and He said that God rewards fasting. Fasting, according to the Bible, means to voluntarily reduce or eliminate your intake of food for a specific time and purpose. (Matt 6:16-18)
Remember that fasting is not “earning” an answer to prayer. God cannot be blackmailed by our human effort. God wants to answer our prayers and He answers out of grace. Fasting simply prepares us for God’s answer.
