Today's Show Has Been Cancelled


Due to several conflicts in all of our schedules, today's Pray for the Hostages program that was scheduled for 3 pm eastern has had to be cancelled. We will let you know when the next hour long show will be, but as always, please join us Monday - Friday at 12 noon eastern for our daily prayer segment.

God is Good, and we pray to Him for the safe return of all those held against their will!

Pastor Ed

No BTR Show Today

Hopefully we will return to our one-hour format next Saturday at 3 pm Eastern. In the meantime, please join us daily at noon for our 15 minute prayer service. Thank you, and please keep praying for the hostages.
