Welcome
We build strong families, nurturing them spiritually, emotionally, financially and physically.
Strong families start with solid foundations. Here at House of Prayer Church our heart for families is that they become spiritually, emotionally, financially and physically whole! A place where families are championed to be all they can be in God. Where broken marriages can be restored and strengthened, prodigal sons and daughters be brought back to their loving heavenly Father and children are given a foundation for them to live out their God given destiny. Our mission to build strong families is our DNA and a big part of who we are. So whether you connect with us over food in a small group or by attending one of our ministries, we hope that House of Prayer Church can be a place for you and your family to grow!
