About Daily Prayer Services

From the publisher's feed

Our daily prayer services are an annual meditation during the Lenten season at First Presbyterian Church of Allentown. The services are originally posted as 2-8 minute video on our YouTube and Facebook pages. Each of the 40 days has a question for reflection followed by a prayer. By lifting up our stories, our entire community of faith get to better know our people.
