Prayer Ministries

“Prayer does not fit us for greater works;
prayer is the greater work.” —Oswald Chambers
We have several special opportunities to pray for our church and for one another. Everyone is invited to participate.

Sunday afternoon Congregational Prayer —Pastor Buck
This year the congregation will gather on some Sunday afternoons for a time of prayer together, led by Pastor Buck. Please plan to join us for prayer and music.
Prayers for Faith —Pastor Buck
Pastor Buck Day suggests prayer requests so that we can unite in bringing aspects of the life of our congregation before God. These suggested topics for prayer are listed on this website on the Prayers for Faith page.
Prayer Chain (e-mail or telephone)—Carol Shanholtzer
There is one Faith Church prayer chain and you can choose to participate either by e-mail or by telephone.
• If you choose to receive the prayer requests by e-mail, you are asked to pray immediately when you read the request. Many print out or make notes of the requests as reminders so they can continue to pray.
• One member receives the prayer requests by e-mail and begins the telephone prayer chain. If you choose to receive the prayer requests by telephone, you are asked to pray on your own and to pass the prayer requests on to another member of the chain by telephone.
Prayer Group —Barbara Tenney
A group gathers to pray for Faith Church many Wednesday afternoons at 4:00 pm. If you would like to be in the e-mail group that is contacted about these meetings, please contact Barbara Tenney.
