Back to School Prayer Activities
 
“Pray in the Spirit at all times. Pray with all kinds of prayers, and ask for everything you need”.
Ephesians 6:18
 
We invite everyone, adults and children, to participate in our Back to School Prayer Activity. We have tables covered in butcher paper placed in various locations inside the building. Educators & children will trace their handprint on the butcher paper, and the rest of us will trace our handprint over theirs—symbolizing our promise to cover them in prayer this school year. 
 
Community Back to School Prayer
We will also have a community back to school prayer this Sunday, August 10th. We will meet at Parkside Baptist Lawn (please note the change of location) at 7:00 PM and disperse to different campuses. Join us for this special time of community prayer.
 
PACOC Back to School Prayer
Also this Sunday, August 10th we will have a congregational prayer for all our teachers, administrators and staff in our morning worship as we embark on another school year.
