The NZBC Prayer Ministry warmly invites everyone to join us for a time of intercessory prayer. Together, we will ask the Holy Spirit to be with us and pray for God’s blessings on our leadership team, our congregation, and our pastoral search committee. As the body of Christ, let’s come together to seek God’s mercy and offer prayers of confession and repentance for our nation, our leaders, and all those in authority. Prayer makes a difference. Prayer transforms lives. Let’s trust God to do what only He can do.

March Let’s Pray - “Now all glory to God, who is able through His mighty power at work within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think.” Ephesians 3:20 (NLT)
We will experience and walk in God’s limitless power only through the Holy Spirit working within us.
We believe that God is doing great things in us at NZBC and will continue to do great things through us.
