Phone Prayer Line

This group join together in prayer for the special intentions of parishoners.

As a member of this group, you would receive a phone call about those in our church family, community and beyond who are in need of your prayers. In the privacy of your home, as you do your daily devotions, when you are riding in your car, or throughout the day when you are speaking to God, your prayers for the individuals on the phone prayer chain will be lifted to the Lord along with the voices of the other prayer chain members.

 
As part of this prayer group you would receive a call from a member in the group who will give you information over the phone concerning the prayer needs of the individual along with a prayer. We will pray for this individual for 7 days.
 
Remember prayer is “medicine and we all have a family member or friend in need of a prayer request. The power of prayer is essential to the road to recovery.
