Prayer Names
As people of faith we pray.
Every week, we have dozens of names and circumstances identified for prayer.
As we continually monitor this, we're in the early stages of evaluating how we best communicate prayer concerns and wishes in a respectful, faithful manner.

In the Hospital
We are intentional about checking the hospital roster every weekday. Even so, please do not hesitate to let us know if you or someone you care about is in the hospital, or has a hospital event scheduled. We don't always find out about a hospitalization, and sometimes we only find out after the fact. The church's number is 701-838-4425. Please know we appreciate knowing you are in the hospital.
The church phone is answered from 8 am to noon and 1 - 5 pm Monday through Friday. If a message is left at the church, we seek to return the call in a timely manner. If a message is left outside of office hours the call will likely not be returned until the following day or Monday.
