Men's Prayer Meetings
Since the summer of 2007, Oakwood Baptist Church has made focusing on prayer a part of our ministry. In light of this, we hold monthly prayer meetings for the men of our church. These meetings consist of a cook-out and a prayer meeting. Once a quarter, our men gather for a meal and then have an all-night prayer meeting. This has been a great blessing to the men of Oakwood Baptist Church and has taken their personal walks with God to a new level. In addition to these monthly and quarterly meetings, we hold an annual Men’s Prayer Retreat during which our men spend two and a half days in prayer, Bible study, and fellowship.
"Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things." — Philippians 4: 6-8
