The Chandler Christian Church in Arizona has recently added a unique new option for people who want to pray on the go - a drive-thru prayer booth.
Pastor Roger Storms of Chandler Christian Church began the drive-thru church option as a one-time event but has not promised to keep the prayer booth open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. "It just takes one prayer to change a person’s heart," he says.
In case the drive-thru prayers are still a little inconvenient and out of your way, the Chandler Christian Church also sends prayers via the internet.
