Prayer Partners - Our Faith Family Walking Together!
|
|
|
We would like for each child in our faith family, from birth to 5th grade, to be given an adult prayer partner. This adult will commit to praying for this child for the rest of his or her life. WOW!!! What a blessing that will be for the praying adult and for each of these children.
Prayer partners will have opportunities to encourage and foster an inter-generational atmosphere in our midst. Partnering adults will be asked to pray daily for their child, send birthday cards, say hello when they see the child at church, and possibly attend activities the child is involved in. As the relationship develops, the adult may take on a mentoring role for the child.
The church will assist in coordinating times when all prayer partners can get together to build those relationships. Contact
Emily Holloway to sign up.
