Prayer Ministries
Prayer Chain
Just a reminder that to start the prayer chain, all you have to do is to call the church office 876-7415. You just have to give the name of the person to be prayed for. If you wish you can give more information but it is not necessary to activate the prayer chain. There is nothing like the power of prayer! St. Paul’s prayer chain is intended to bring prayerful support to the needs of its members, their families and friends. Each participant in St. Paul’s prayer chain receives a call or email (whichever they have requested) with a prayer request. That person is then asked to relay the concern to one other participant next in line on the “Telephone Tree”. Once the call is made, they take time to pray privately for the need requested. Subsequent thought and prayers are recommended during the days following the request.
These requests may be for someone who is going into the hospital, facing financial hardship, needing strength to carry on, needing support for loved ones who are ill or dying or any other needs. You can be specific or general with your prayer request.
​
God answers prayers, and all prayers can help!!!!
