Everyone is invited and welcome to join us as we bring our burdens, hurts and brokenness to the altar (or silently). Share in the power of prayer as the Body of Christ as we pray for each other, our community and for the world. This meditative service includes music, communion, Scripture and anointing with intercessory prayer (if desired). Hear a personal testimony of God’s love and healing mercies from our featured speaker. Have questions? Contact Pastor Beth using the contact form below.
Steven Collier, a Toledo trial lawyer, remembers learning and knowing about God and Jesus from attending weekly Sunday church services as a child in the small farm town of Deshler, Ohio. He has fond memories of his Sunday School teachers and can still recite the prayer he said every night growing up. When significant life challenges emerged in adulthood, Steve gave more consideration to the precise role of religion in his life. Hear about some of these experiences and what role his faith played in getting through them. Steve and his wife Annette are members of The University Church.
