Intercessory Prayer

In intecessory prayer, we imitate Jesus who "always lives to make intercession." (Heb 7:25) The Spirit "himself intercedes for the saints according to God's will." (Rom 8:26-27)

Interceding for others (as Abraham did) shows a heart attuned to God's mercy. Christians participate in Christ's intercession by praying for the interests of others, even of enemies.

Paul asked the Ephesian community to "pray at every opportunity in the Spirit" and to make "supplications for all the holy ones" (Eph 6:18). He asked for intercession, "for all men, for kings, and all in high positions" (1 Tim 2:1).

Each week, this ministry gathers to pray for the sick, the suffering, the needs, and other intentions of the Church.  We invite you to come pray with us and also to submit your needs to a member of this ministry so that we can pray for you.
