Omaha Church Hosts World Prayer Night
Recently, the Omaha Church of Christ got together for an evening called "World Prayer Night" to pray for every church in the world that is a part of the ICOC fellowship. Our Epaphras Prayer Ministry (Colossians 4:12) designed this evening to take time out of our schedules to call on God, asking him to assist all of our brothers and sisters in each individual church by name with the work they are doing in their fellowships, cities and nations. We then celebrated our worldwide group of churches with an international food potluck.
