Peter & Helen Walley

Rev. Peter Walley and his wife Helen are coordinators for the Prayer Ministry for our church family.
 

What is prayer ministry?
 

Prayer ministry is simply an opportunity for you to come to God with something that you would like prayer for. 
Maybe something has struck a chord with you in a service and you would like to pray about it, maybe you have a personal worry or need, maybe you want to ask God for healing, maybe there is someone else in need you want to bring to God or maybe you simply want to give thanks for something that has happened or prayers answered.

So it can be for anything, for you or for others, whether it be physical, emotional, or spiritual. 
             It is up to you what you share. 
      
 

When is it available?

Normally, each Sunday after communion or at the end of services, for a short time.

  
Where does it take place?
In the prayer corner at the back of church.
 

Who is it for?

ANYONE of any age who has something particular which they would like to join with others to pray or give thanks for.

 
Is it confidential?
Absolutely.  Those who pray are trained to keep all that is shared totally confidential.  
 Nothing for which you ask prayer is discussed with anyone else unless they have your permission to do so.
 
Who will pray with me?

There is a small group called the prayer ministry team and two of them will be available.  All the people on the team, know the value of prayer for themselves and have had some training in praying and listening.

 
What can I expect?
Those who pray are not there to counsel or give advice to you.  Rather they are there to be with you in prayer and to listen to you and what God might
 be saying as you bring your particular need to Him. We pray in faith that our loving and merciful God hears our prayers and responds to our needs. 
 
Prayer Ministry Team co-ordinators are Peter and Helen Walley. They are available to talk to anyone who would like to know more or who wants
to ask any questions about prayer ministry or who may want to meet to pray about something outside of church services.
    
********
       We don’t have a God who is out of touch with our reality.  He’s been through weakness and testing, experienced it all – all but the sin.
                   Let us then approach him with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need.
