Whether you are brand new to GBF or are a long-time member/attender, we’d love to have you join us.

John 15:12 “This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you.” (ESV)

One way to show love to one another is to pray for them.

James 5:16 Therefore, confess your sins to one another and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person has great power as it is working. (ESV)
