Prayer Ministry

Ø Men’s Prayer

            A group of men meet each Tuesday at 7:00 am in the prayer room for prayer.

Ø Prayer Chain

            There are five groups who respond to emergency or daily prayer requests. Requests are made through the church office on weekdays, 8 am - 4:30 pm. After hour and weekend requests are directed to specific individuals who will begin the prayer chain.

Ø Prayer Warriors

            The purpose of this ministry is to under gird and lift up the ministries of our church and specific needs and concerns of our members. Specific prayer requests are made by members filling out prayer request cards and dropping the cards in prayer boxes that are centrally located throughout our facilities. The prayer warriors are committed to an hour of prayer each week, praying over the requests including the ministries and other needs of our church. The prayer warriors also have a rotating schedule, which enables one of them to be in the prayer room during each of the Sunday morning and evening worship services, praying specifically for that particular service.
