🔥 Let’s Get Ready to Pray — Midday Prayer Today! 🔥

Join us each Wednesday at 12 Noon for a powerful time of prayer with UC Ultimate Connections Ministry, led by Dr. Gwenda Tavares.

Today, we are leaning in to hear God with clarity and confidence as we focus on:

✨ Topic: Knowing the Voice of God
📖 Scripture: John 10:4–5 • 1 Kings 19:12 • Jeremiah 31:15 • Matthew 2:18

In John 10, Jesus teaches us that His sheep know His voice. But many of us are in seasons where noise, grief, or spiritual pressure try to drown out what God is saying.
Jeremiah 31:15 and Matthew 2:18 remind us of moments of deep sorrow — voices crying out from places of pain. Yet even in those moments, God’s voice does not disappear. He speaks comfort, direction, and restoration.

Today’s prayer gathering will help us discern the difference between the voice of pain, the voice of fear, and the voice of God — the One who still leads, still whispers, and still calls us by name.
