For four Sundays in the fall of 2012, we prayed together as a congregation. Using colorful flags, we wrote prayers for the world, for others, for ourselves, and for our church. We filled our sanctuary with prayers lifted to God, vibrant reminders of our various expressions of faith and the many different ways God answers prayers. Then, we each committed a portion of our time, talent and/or treasure to help bring about God's reign through this Body of Christ in 2013.
