2013 Theme
The Church, if it has discerned what God is doing, would readily agree that it is no longer business as usual; God is doing a new thing. Therefore, theres no room or tolerance for being content with the status quo. God is anxiously waiting for His people to embrace Next Level Ministry by embracing the total truth of His Word through pure obedience.

Spoken Word Notes

Pilgrimage to Pentecost
You are asked by Presiding Bishop Charles E. Blake to take 11 minutes out of your prayer time every day for the 50 day Pilgrimage from Easter Sunday (March 31, 2013) until the Day of Pentecost (May 19, 2013) to pray 11 Petitions to the Throne of Grace for revival and renewal of Pentecostal power. What are the prayer needs? The prayer needs are provided in the list of 11 Petitions of Prayer created by the anointed scholars of the Church Of God In Christ. Why 11 minutes? This is 11 minutes of your prayer time. This will make it more feasible for all of our 6 million members to participate; because everyone is not a seasoned prayer warrior and the Presiding Bishop requests that EVERY saint joins in the prayer. While many of us can handle long seasons of prayer; we want the youth, baby saints, and everyone to join in this time of consecration. Suggested 11 Minute Prayer: 1 minute per petition. If you can do more or less than 11 minutes Thats great; as long as everyone does something. EVERY PRAYER COUNTS! You are also requested to fast on Tuesdays and Fridays (Midnight to 3:00p.m.) The Presiding Bishop is asking that you use your Friday fast day to petition Gods throne during this Pilgrimage to Pentecost. The Lansing Church of God in Christ is a praying church with many corporate prayer times available throughout the week. Please make it a priority to join your LCOGIC family in corporate prayer. See Evangelist Joyce Jackson if you have questions regarding prayer days and times. Lansing Church of God in Christ Weekly Prayer Schedule
