We have quite a large prayer group.
By becoming a member of this group we
commit to pray daily. We do not have special things to pray for or about. We
simply pray reverently to God and by doing so, we build a strong and loving
relationship with Him.
Those belonging to the prayer
group pray for people and situations
upon request. We have three prayer chain leaders; Joy Harding, Helen
Rawson and Millie Kaye, each having a group of people in their
chain. As a prayer request is received, each leader passes it onto the next
person in their chain, who passes it onto the next person and so on.
These prayer requests are frequently for people who are ill or about to go to
hospital for a procedure. Sometimes we pray for those who need help with life's
problems and uncertainties. It is a comfort to know that people in the prayer
chain will pray for these requests daily.

We also have a prayer luncheon three or four times a year. We say a prayer or
two, listen to a guest speaker and then join together in a shared lunch.
Anyone
is welcome at the luncheons and we always have a happy time.
