Weekend On Prayer Series

Portrait of Dr. Ron Clouzet

On Friday evening, February 21 at 7:00 pm, and Sabbath, February 22, (worship service and afternoon meeting) Dr. Ron Clouzet is leading us in a special Weekend On Prayer series. His presentation will complement his recently published book, In the Name of Jesus: Power to Pray for People and Places, available at the Texas ABC. It is suggested that you may want to purchase a copy of this book to get the most out of the series. Dr. Clouzet has spoken at many church and scholarly gatherings around the world (some 70 countries), on a broad range of spiritual topics, including prayer. He has served as a pastor, Ministerial Secretary, speaker/director for Hope TV, a Professor at Andrews University, a former president of the Adventist Theological Society, Director of the NAD Evangelism Institute, and Dean of the School of Religion at Southern Adventist University, among many other roles.

Make plans now (enter it into your phone's calendar) to attend this informative and impactful series. Understanding how our prayers for our loved ones transforms both us and them is a blessing beyond measure.
