Prayer Requests

The Power of Prayer


When we pray, we are partnering with God and demonstrating that we fully trust in His love and plan for us. We pray to live out our God-given mandate “to pray for one another”. When we pray, we live out this principle given to us by Jesus. Prayer is part of our individual spiritual growth and by praying for others we encompass the love of God given through Jesus. The way to have a healthy relationship with Jesus is to spend some time each day in prayer. We bring our prayers to God, whether for ourselves or for others, knowing that God responds to our request. In our Anglican tradition, we have many opportunities to pray collectively and privately. Praying brings us all closer to God.
