Daily Prayer Services

Religion EN ↓ 81 episodes

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. Our 2025 Lenten Theme is "Everything [in] Between: Meeting God in the Midst of Extremes" from A Sanctified Art.
