FUMCFW Prayer Ministries offers many ways to get connected with our praying community. Recognizing that every person has unique gifts and callings, many of which emerge out of times of struggle and pain, we are here to encourage individual spiritual formation and disciplines that can become powerful influences on all aspects of the life-long faith journey.
Looking to spend more time with God? Our Daily Bread Devotionals are written by people of faith and include messages of instruction and inspiration. We invite you to take a few moments to read and reflect upon today’s scripture selection and to carry these thoughts with you into your day. Join us on this daily journey of faith!

Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy name. Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For Thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever. Amen. (Matthew 6:9-13)
