Lenten Prayer Guide / Journal

Many Christians use the Lenten season as a time to give something up, or to deny themselves of some pleasure, such as watching excessive TV, as a means of self discipline.

The Prayer Team is suggesting that during Lent this year, instead of giving something up, (or in addition to this self denial), you add something; a vow to make your prayer life more intentional and perhaps slightly more structured.

To assist our church family in making prayer more intentional, a Prayer Guide/Journal has been developed which you can use to focus your prayers and keep track of those people and things for which you have prayed. For each day from Ash Wednesday through Easter Sunday there is a separate page identifying a prayer focus and then room for you to record daily prayer concerns, celebrations, and your thoughts as you pray.

If one has not been given to you in Church, Sunday School, etc., please pick one up at the church office or call the church. Through genuine prayer, both in talking with God and listening to His response, each of us can grow into the type of Christian God would have us be.
