Diana's Testimony
I joined our Christian prayer group at work in March 2025, during the Lenten season, seeking a deeper connection with God in a busy and sometimes demanding work environment. What started as a simple desire to grow spiritually during Lent has become an ongoing source of strength, encouragement, and spiritual renewal.
Being part of this prayer meeting has reminded me of the importance of coming together in faith, standing in agreement in prayer, and lifting one another up in the name of Jesus. Each session has been a blessing—rooted in Scripture, filled with the presence of the Holy Spirit, and rich with heartfelt intercession and thanksgiving.
It’s been such a joy to see how God is working through this group. The fellowship, the shared testimonies, and the moments of worship have helped me stay grounded in Christ and have strengthened my walk with Him at work. I am truly grateful for this community of believers in the workplace, and I thank God for the opportunity to grow together in faith.
