Online Prayer Requests — A Special Service We Offer to All Our Visitors
Why do we offer a place to make prayer requests online?
Sometimes we all feel the need to have someone pray with us. Whether because we need the additional support in difficult times, or because we want to share our joy over a special blessing that has appeared in our life, communal prayer holds an important place in the world’s religious and spiritual traditions. If you belong to an establish community you probably have already experienced the benefits of joining others in prayer and sharing your spiritual self with others.
Not everyone has ready access to a community to share their prayer requests with. Many people experience some form of spiritual isolation. Sometimes it is a simple matter of no community existing nearby. In other instances physical or mental disabilities can make it difficult to participate in a “brick & mortar” organization. Some prayer requests may be of a deeply personal nature and you may not feel comfortable or safe openly sharing them with people that you interact with on a regular basis. Sometimes you just want a little anonymity. Whatever the reason, online prayer requests provide access to the benefits of shared prayer to people that would otherwise have to do without.
How We Handle Your Online Prayer Requests
Once we receive your prayer request, we will add it to our list and include it in our regular prayer for 30 days. If your need extends beyond that time, we invite you to return and submit a new request at that time. All Requests are kept absolutely confidential.
