National Minute of Prayer – History tells us that during World War II, millions of people across Great Britain joined in 1 minute of silent prayer every night as Big Ben chimed the 9:00 PM hour. Set an alarm to ring at 9 PM daily –  “join the growing corps of ‘Minute-men’ across our land who, like the Minutemen of the American Revolution, are committed to decisive action: one minute of daily, consistent, concerted prayer to change the course of history in our nation.” For more information, visit www.MinuteOfPrayer.org

DID YOU KNOW…..There are 60 million Christians in America and 30 million of them don’t vote or are not even registered to vote?! Imagine the impact that Christians could have on the future of our nation if we made our voices heard by exercising our right, duty & privilege to vote. Absentee Ballot Requests & Voter Registration forms are available at the Information Desk or to register go to www.votesPA.com. Dates to be aware of: October 11 is the deadline to register and change your registration information. November 1 is the very last day to request an absentee ballot (they must be returned by November 4).
