Prayer Vigil Helps

Thank you for being part of this prayer vigil

Because prayer for an hour for many may seem like a monumental task, these are suggestions for making this time of prayer more meaningful for you and for those on the weekend. Remember, these are just suggestions.

Team information (Weekend Verse, Team Roster, and Pilgrims) can be found in the newsletter posted on our website.

Important

  1. Select a time that you can truly devote to the Lord.
  2. Choose a place where you can be quiet. Kneel or sit before the Lord.
  3. Materials you may want to have on hand include the Pilgrim list, Team list, your Bible, Song book, and you might want to light a candle.

Pray:

  1. For the Lord’s presence to quiet your heart, mind, body, and spirit.
  2. For the Lord to take the cares and stress of the day from you.
