Each Monday morning, several of the ladies of Word of Life gather together to pray. Join your sisters in Christ as we lift our prayers and praises up to the God of heaven. We meet every Monday at 9:00 AM in the prayer room.
Each January, we encourage the entire Word of Life family to embark on a time of Prayer and Fasting.
Each year has a theme that builds off the prayer, "“O Lord, give us ONE DESIRE: Make our hearts beat as one with yours..."
For 2026, the theme is "Expand Our Desire" and our key verse is Psalm 73:25 - "Whom have I in heaven but you? And there is nothing on earth I desire besides you.”"

Announcing a new and developing outreach of Word of Life Baptist Church to our community:
The Word of Life RC Course
Do you have a radio controled car and want to run it on a track or crawler course? We have a place for you to do that, including a stand to control your cars from, just off our lower parking lot, near the sheds and storage containers.
As with our Disc Golf Course, this is open to the public, but closed during Sunday morning services and funerals.
Have fun out there!
Contact Kevin Dore for more information.
Most weeks, a small, but friendly group of people meets up, after the morning service, in the lobby of MidMichigan Medical Center of Alpena. They gather some hymnals and sing some hymns and/or choruses at the ends of the hallways on multiple floors. A few of the patients/families may make requests or even join in as we sing two or three hymns in each spot. It may remind you of Christmas caroling, but with regular hymns. Expect to spend around an hour at the hospital, depending on how much visiting (with the team and/or patients) you happen to do.
Does that sound like something you would like to do or try? Contact the church office for more information.
