Starting a prayer ministry at a church can be a powerful and meaningful way to engage members of the church community in the practice of prayer and to create a space for people to come together and lift one another up in prayer. Here are some steps to consider as you begin to plan and launch a prayer ministry at your church:
- Identify the purpose and goals of the prayer ministry. Before you begin, it's important to understand why you want to start a prayer ministry and what you hope to achieve through it. Some possible goals might include providing a space for people to share their prayer requests, encouraging church members to pray for one another, and creating a sense of community through shared prayer.
