PRAYER
MINISTRY:
At First United Methodist Church we strongly believe in the power
of intercessory prayer, and we are dedicated to the call to be in
prayer for and with one another. Prayer requests raised by our congregation
are communicated by the Prayer Chain Ministry Team via e-mail and
telephone to our many Prayer Chain Disciples who pray individually
for the concerns . Our disciples are "links" in the chain,
allowing God's love to flow through us to the person being prayed
for. Think of our disciples as holding the hand of Jesus with one
hand and the hand of the person being prayed for with the other.
E-mail your
Prayer Requests to: fumcprayers16@yahoo.com.
If you want
to be added as a prayer disciple send your request to fumcprayers16@yahoo.com.
