WE BELIEVE IN THE POWER OF PRAYER

The Christ Church prayer ministry includes several prayer related activities of our church. It is formed with the understanding that prayer is a vital practice for all Christians. Prayer opens up communications between us and God. Prayer changes things and it changes us. Prayer helps us focus on God and what God is saying to us every day. Praying with others draws us together and helps us grow spiritually as we see ourselves as Jesus’ disciples.In short, prayer is our spiritual lifeblood. And prayer, as it leads to action, can be both a means to revitalize the church within and to reach new people in the community around us.

We take our encouragement to pray from the scriptures:

“Pray without ceasing” 1 Thessalonians 5:18.

“Do not worry about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus” Philippians 4: 6-7.

“Therefore confess your sins to one another, so that you may be healed. They prayer of the righteous is powerful and effective” James 5:16

The Christ Church Prayer Ministry includes:

Focus on Prayer – a group that meets the 1st and 3rd Sundays of the month in the sanctuary immediately after Worship Service. The group has a short prayer-related discussion followed by prayer.  The group solicits prayers requests and invites all who would like to receive prayer for any reason to attend.

Prayer List – a weekly printed prayer list in our Sunday bulletin. Those mentioned are offered to God in prayer during Sunday service and on an ongoing basis.

We are here to join in your prayers for the Lord’s assistance.  We also offer the peace and comfort of an accepting congregation. Come and visit with us.
