WMUV Standing Rock Virtual Prayer Walk


During the last two weeks of July, WMUV, in partnership with the Roanoke Valley Baptist Association, will be taking more than 300 volunteers to the Standing Rock Reservation in the Dakotas.

These Native Americans deal with unemployment, poverty, alcoholism and domestic violence on a daily basis. We covet your prayers as we minister alongside our native American friends to bring the hope and love of Christ to 7 communities.

We’ve created a virtual prayer walk so you can learn more about and pray for the specific needs on the reservation.
