A NIGHT OF PRAYER

Black Chickadee Productions is an event management company that specializes in producing biblical events such as “A Night of Prayer.”  A Night of Prayer is where kingdom law is utilized to petition the King of Kings – the highest authority!  According to John 15:7 (If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you), it is our right as Kingdom citizens to boldly come before the Throne of Grace and ask (assertively insist without backing down, but not disrespectfully nor arrogantly).  So, like the storefront church of days past, prayer warriors and intercessors are coming together to offer praise with thanksgiving and prayer with urgency in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus, the Christ.  This is a free event and all seekers of the Lord are welcome to join us.

Global Leadership Summit

Join us at this summer’s Global Leadership Summit.
Hosted at both Grace Chapel & North River Church (August 6 & 7)

The Global Leadership Summit is one of the largest leadership conferences in the world. In this two-day event you’ll engage with other local leaders as you hear prominent experts from both the marketplace and ministry share their wisdom.  This will help you:

-Become better leaders
-Tackle leadership challenges
-Refine strategy
-Build a thriving culture.

The GLS is perfect for both individuals and teams who want to grow their leadership skills.  In 2025 over 350,000 people attended in over 110 countries.  The GLS is run live from Willow Creek Church in Chicago, and livestreamed to thousands of host sites worldwide including in the Boston area Grace Chapel in Lexington, Watertown and Wilmington, and North River Church in Pembroke.  For more info checkout www.GlobalLeadership.org/Summit,  or contact Grace Chapel (www.Grace.Org/GLS) or North River Church (www.NorthRiverChurch.org)


From Pastor Stephen Nyakairu:
Here are just two testimonies from leaders who have attended the Summit through Grace Chapel:
“As a police chief, I am selective about how I invest my time and professional development resources. I initially questioned whether a leadership conference delivered through a local host site could provide the same value as attending in person, but I was pleasantly surprised by both the quality of the speakers and the relevance of the content. Through Grace Chapel, I experienced the Summit in a live host-site setting that created an engaging atmosphere and sense of connection, making it feel as though we were part of a much larger event.
The Global Leadership Summit delivered practical leadership lessons, diverse perspectives, and a positive message that could be applied immediately within our organization. I found the experience so valuable that the following year I sent more than half a dozen members of my leadership team to attend.
Investing in the development of our people is one of the most important responsibilities of any leader, and the Summit provides an outstanding opportunity to do just that. We intend to continue sending members of our department in the years ahead and would recommend the experience to leaders in public safety, government, business, and nonprofit organizations alike.”
—Justin M. Hanrahan
Chief of Police, Watertown Police Department
“As the CEO of a small business, I was always on the outlook for time- and cost-effective ways to grow my team and invest in them personally and professionally. I found the Global Leadership Summit to be the perfect combination of both of these goals. I had my local team join me and asked others across the country to find a host site near them which meant no one had to travel to hear these world-class speakers. We had some fun and important conversations in the weeks following the event. And, I also had each person buy a book from their favorite speaker and we used that as a future way to share across the team what we were learning and putting into practice to grow our business.”

Leaders For Life

Join us for an inspiring evening as we launch Leaders for Life, a new networking and impact-driven group for young professionals passionate about life and service.

This will be a fundraising event benefiting Boston Pregnancy Center (BPC) and its life-affirming work in the Boston area. Together, we’ll explore how to build a culture of life through generosity, leadership, and community engagement.

We’re honored to welcome Robin John, CEO of Eventide, as our guest speaker. Under his leadership, Eventide has become a nationally recognized firm in values-based investing. He has also served in leadership roles at Bank of New York Mellon and as a business consultant for Grant Thornton. Robin holds a degree in Economics from Tufts University.

Robin is also the author of the newly released book, The Good Investor, which explores a Christian perspective on investing—as a path to joy, a tool to create value, and a means to heal the world’s brokenness.

Come hear Robin’s story and vision for integrating faith, purpose, and leadership in the marketplace—and learn how you can be part of this growing movement.
