Daily Prayer
For 174 years, Hephzibah Methodist Church has stood as a place of worship, prayer, hope, and community. After the damage caused by Hurricane Helene, we began a long and difficult journey of restoration. While the rebuilding process has not always been easy, we continue to believe that God is still at work.
Throughout the month of May, we are joining together for 31 Days of Prayer as we continue stepping into restoration. Each day includes a short prayer and scripture focused on faith, wisdom, unity, strength, and the road ahead. Whether you are part of our church family, live in our community, or are simply looking for encouragement, we invite you to pray with us as we trust God for what comes next.
Restoring more than a building. Since 1852.
