Prayer
“Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything,
by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving,
present your requests to the lord.”
Phillipians Ch4: v6
Here at St. Chad’s we believe fully that prayer underpins all that we do and all that we are as disciples in Christ. Prayer is a fundamental in our relationship with God, and vital if we are to journey with Him as individuals and as His church. Prayer really is the pathway to us growing as:
"Christ, inside and out".
Beyond encouraging individuals in personal prayer and also intimate prayer with just one or two close friends, we at St. Chad’s encourage folks to join in prayer in a variety of ways:
Prayer Ministry Team
At St. Chad’s we have a team of trained people who would love to pray in confidence with you or for you after our 10.30am Sunday service.
This is a time of ministry in which, in a relaxed and loving way, we can come before God, bringing to him those things on our hearts, or reaching out to him for his healing touch.
All are invited to come for this ministry after the service. For more information please contact Joy Blackwood HERE.
Pastoral Ministry Team
Our Pastoral Ministry Team are similarly trained and authorised by the church leadership to reach out to those in our church family and beyond in confidence, seeking God’s ministering touch.
Folks from the team will visit and pray with anyone who is seeking God’s graceful healing and wisdom in the life issues they are facing.
The team also help folks logistically when that is appropriate.
For more information please contact Christine Harding HERE.
Prayer Chain
Our Prayer Chain is used when any emergency situation arises in someone’s life, or when an issue needs to be covered in prayer. The prayer chain is made up of folks called to intercessory prayer and can be used by anyone.
For further information please contact Pauline HERE or through the office.
Tuesday Night Prayer Group
At 7.30pm on Tuesday nights folks are invited to join our prayer group in the Prayer Room in our church hall (directly behind the church) to listen to God and to pray together for ourselves and for the needs of the world.
In the full belief that prayer must underpin all that we are and all that we do as disciples of Christ, this time of intercession is of great value to us as individuals and as a church.
We welcome anyone who would like to join us in this time of prayer. Please feel free to come and go anytime between 7.30 & 9pm. For further details you can contact Joy Blackwood HERE.
Prayer Breakfast
On the first Saturday in each month we meet with our brothers and sisters in Christ from other local churches, to pray for our churches, the town, and the wider issues of the world.
We begin with fellowship over breakfast, and then we move in to a time of collective prayer.
Again, all are welcomed to just come along. The venue for the meeting is worked on a rota basis, so please check our weekly notice sheet for full details of our next gathering, or contact Pauline HERE for information.
Men’s Prayer Breakfast
At St. Chad’s we have various Men’s activities running – see "Just Men" for more details – but on the last Saturday of the month (not December !!) the Men from our church are invited to come for breakfast in the Royal Room and pray together.
Any of the men are welcome to just come along – sorry ladies, but you can’t come.
For further details please contact Roger Whipp HERE.
