Pray for CSM!

CSM is powered by prayer, and we need yours! We are enabled to respond to the needs of individuals and families who need help ordering the their lives, their time and their finances by the prayers of our supporters. Jesus told his disciples to ask and keep on asking until they received. We need folks who will stand with CSM before the Father's throne to do just that. Please consider joining CSM's intercessors in asking God to change peoples' lives through CSM and to provide support for the ministry.

Please call Delores Jewell (703-406-2130) or CSM (703-591-5000) for information on the CSM intercessory team.
