Sign-ups for our 40 Days of Prayer campaign open August 9th, and here's why this matters to us.

As we head into a new school year, our first step as a church isn't a program or a plan. It's coming back to God, so we can hear what He's saying and see the vision He has for Union Chapel.

That kind of clarity doesn't happen alone. It only comes when we're all hearing and seeing the same thing from God together, and that happens through prayer and fasting.

Mark your calendar for August 9th, and watch for how to sign up in that week's eNews or on the website.
