CHURCH PRAYER MINISTRY

Following the review meeting held on 16th October, we would like to bring you up-to-date with our thoughts for the future Prayer Ministry.  

Pre-service prayer:  This will continue to take place between 10 am and 10.15 am and 6 pm and 6.15 pm.

We would like to thank those people who already participate and also to invite and encourage anyone to join in, as and when they are able.  We find this time of prayer very special.

Yellow Badge Ministry:  Again a big thank you to those who take part, even a few minutes of your time can be of great value.  If you would like to, and are available to pray with anyone who requests prayer after the services we would be delighted to hear from you.

Prayer Chain:  This ministry continues to work well, is readily available and provides a valuable opportunity for us to pray for any situation and anybody who has a need.  It can also provide outreach opportunities when we pray for people in the community.  We are very excited at the prospect of the letters which are being sent out to various organisations and establishments within Stanway, offering our prayer support and availability to pray for any requests or special needs that may be forthcoming from them.  We feel that this is a big step forward in our outreach programme and we would value your prayers for its future progress.

Prayer Triplets:  Unfortunately this ministry has not really proved to work well so far, but we would still like it to take place, so we are looking to re-form some groups.  If you are interested in being part of a triplet, would you please contact Barbara Ratcliffe or Helen Scott.  These groups could be of great value, both to the individual and the Church.

Wherever we are and whatever our situation we can all PRAY, this is the most important part that we can play in the life of our Church and it would be our great pleasure to welcome you into one or more of the above groups.

Ephesians Chapter 6, verse 18 “And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests”.
