Prayer
Prayer Changes Everything
As a congregation we believe in the the power of prayer. Prayer is a two-way fellowship and communication with God. It is having a conversation with God, bringing to Him our joys as well as our needs. Prayer involves both speaking to God and listening for His response through the Word. We believe that we are called to do the following:
​
Pray for the Church in our community and around the world
Pray for our congregational family
Pray for our leaders in and outside of the Church
Pray for the world
3 Ways to Gather with us in Prayer
01
Join us in community prayer
Lifting one another's joys, sorrows, and concerns before God in prayer is a practice that characterizes our life together at St. Matthew's. In our worship services, we pray each other's prayers together. Outside of our time together, many parishioners make it part of their daily lives to repeat the prayers of the community as they are listed weekly in the bulletin. You are invited to participate in your own way.
02
Join us in Monthly Prayer
We want to be a praying community! As Paul writes in Philippians 4:6, "...in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God."
As our leaders & prayer team are faithfully praying through this season, join us and connect for a monthly prayer session where we gather for group prayer via phone.
