WHAT PEOPLE SAY about our training
DARRYLL AND ELIZABETH, PRAYER COORDINATORS
This might be the missing link in many churches, a simple introduction to having an ongoing interactive relationship with the Father, just as Jesus did. We are very excited about this!

Our team is now equipped and confident to minister in Immanuel Prayer. In the two short months since our training, we have seen many people experience the loving presence of God in a way that they never have before.
