Prayer Network

Our Prayer Network is simply a structure that allows us to know your prayer needs and gives your church leaders and church family the opportunity to pray for you. We believe in the power of prayer and the injunctions of Scripture to pray for one another. It is our great privilege to carry needs before the Father and then wait upon His answer. Here are ways of connection for prayer.

After Service: Even on Sundays when no invitation is offered, you can always come forward after service and request prayer for any need. A pastor can pray with you privately or, if you would like, we can gather a few friends together to pray for you. We will always take time to pray.

Connection Card: Every week you will find a “welcome card” or connection card in your bulletin. There is a place on the back for comments and prayer concerns. Some folks use their card for this every week, and every week the staff prays for these needs. We will also publish this on the bulletin or on the Prayer Chain IF YOU REQUEST. Otherwise they are kept private.

Prayer Services: From time to time we have special seasons and services for prayer. You can always avail yourself to one of these, as they are announced and scheduled and open to all.

Prayer Chain: The Prayer Chain is a prayer ministry of phone callers who have committed themselves to receive and make prayer calls. When the prayer chain is activated, within minutes calls are made to dozens of people who stop to pray for the need immediately, and then pass it on to others.

Deacons: The Scripture tells us that if anyone of us is sick, we may call the elders of the church to pray over us, and anoint with oil in the name of the Lord. Our deacons are happy to make house calls and hospital calls for prayer, and not just for sickness. Call them for any prayer need.
