Thank you for the opportunity to pray with you and for you. Our parish family will join you in prayer by praying for your request or intention in our daily prayer and sending to our intercessory prayer circle.
Your prayer request will shared with a trusted group of parishioners among our parish family. They join in this special ministry of prayer and petition. Each member of our parish prayer group will receive your prayer request or personal petition and will add your prayers and petitions to theirs.
When making a prayer request, to maintain a high level of confidentiality it is strongly suggested that you only use the first name and last initial of an individual, friend or family member. In doing this the spiritual care and privacy of others can remain as a priority. Each person is entitled to the privacy they deserve when experiencing medical care, physical healing, a personal or emotional crisis or in a time of spiritual need or personal distress.
Praying for others—intercessory prayer—is a basic component of the Christian life. We do this for our family, our friends, and in response to disastrous or difficult situations in the world because we know that prayer works!
Do you have a particular interest in praying for others? Do you often find yourself moved to pray for the needs all around you? Do you find that praying for others energizes you and stirs up your spirit?
You'll receive regular emails with specific prayer requests from both our parish community, and the wider community - all you have to do is pray!
