New Prayer Ministry 
The Lord’s hand continues to actively move within the Free Methodist Church and He has given direction for a House of Prayer ministry here at the FM World Ministries Center (WMC). The prayer focus is to seek divine guidance from the Lord for the ongoing mission of the FMC and its future. We believe that prayer is the foundation of the FM Church organization because prayer is a central practice in communicating with God and seeking His guidance. Please include this new ministry in your daily prayers. Local Free Methodist pastors and leaders in Indiana are welcomed to attend our 30-minute in-person prayer gathering Mondays from 4:30pm-5pm. No need to RSVP. 

Please email geni.gonzalez@fmcusa.org for questions.
