St. John’s takes prayer seriously. Prayer is fully half of what we do every single Lord’s Day.
Prayer for the nations of the world, for the lost, for our own country, and for those in need abound. Thanksgivings are named for God’s grace and kindness, as well as for specific answers to prayer, or ways in which we recognize His love for us. Part of that prayer is for particular individuals; especially those in our congregation, or who are known to us. We often meet our people at the communion rail after the worship service to pray with them.
