LCMC 3 DAYS OF PRAYER IS FROM JANUARY 7TH – 9TH, 2025. LCMC’s 3 Days of Prayer is an opportunity for us to come together as one across the association at the start of the new year with a shared purpose: to pray. “As we gather together as one association on those days, let us pray for our families, our churches, our leaders and members, and for those who do not yet know Jesus as Savior and Lord.”
