There are many different types of Prayer Gatherings from formal Prayer Services that include music and scripture to small groups that gather together in a circle to offer their prayers to God at the end of a meeting.
Here at Temple Terrace United Methodist Church, the Prayer Ministry leads a monthly Prayer Gathering on the second Saturday of each month. These gatherings have changed over the years due to style of the Leader of the Prayer Ministry. When I took on this role, I followed God’s direction to me to focus on prayer for our church. So, each month we lift up the various ministries in our church, upcoming special events and of course our Pastor, staff and church leaders. So, there is nothing scary about coming to our Prayer Gatherings! We also try different types of prayer, such as the Soaking Prayer that I mentioned in a previous blog. We close by forming a circle and offering our own prayers & praises to God. I am always blessed by the passion of those who attend and the prayers that are raised.
I hope you will join us at our next Prayer Gathering on May 12 at 9am.
Jackie,
Joyce and I did attend your last group for prayer, and did the soaking prayer. Was a VERY uplifting moment. Thanks for all the wonderful things you do in GOD’S name.
Our church is so blessed with the folks we have walking in the path of Jesus.
Faith without work is dead!
