Prayer
Christ Church is committed to prayer - we believe prayer is at the heart of all we do as a Church and is the responsibility of every Christian. Therefore it is an important part of our individual and corporate life. Our Prayer Key Leader is Jane Franklin
Regular Prayer Occasions to which all are welcome
Rotunda Prayers:
Monthly Prayer Meeting:
We meet together every first Tuesday of the month between 8pm and 9pm. Come and pray with others for the needs within the Church and community.
Prayer and Praise:
We meet twice a month for 'Prayer and Praise' on a Wednesday evening, between 8pm and 9.30pm. We spend time in worship, corporate prayer and listening to God.
School Prayers:
Prayer for our village schools takes place each month in the Church Centre: For the Carrington Schools on the first Thursday and Juniper Hill School on the first Monday.
Other Opportunities to pray
24/7 Prayer:
We are linked to a world-wide prayer network... and take opportunities through the year to pray continually, including nights of prayer and weeks of 24-7 prayer.
Prayer Triplets & Prayer Partnerships:
We encourage people to be in a prayer triplet/partnership. We would love to help you find someone to pray with.
Prayer-Chain:
Christ Church has an email prayer-chain, and a phone Prayer-Chain for emergencies. If you are not part of either of these please contact the Church Office. To pass around an item for prayer please contact your Homegroup Leader or Sue Simpson.
Intercessors:
Christ Church has a team of confidential Intercessors to support the work and ministry of the Church.
Prayer Noticeboard:
Don't forget to check the Prayer Noticeboard in the Rotunda for up-to-date prayer information.
Quiet Days:
Once a term we run a Quiet morning, evening or day. It is an opportunity to step aside from busy lives and spend some time in quiet reflection and reading. We have used a labyrinth.
Prayer Cards:
Each month we produce a Prayer Bulletin and a Mission Prayer Sheet, to encourage regular prayer for important aspects of the people and life of the church, and those we support.
