WHY PRAY?

We pray because Jesus prayed and he taught his disciples to pray. Prayer is a form of intimacy with God which offers us an opportunity to hear him, to praise and thank him, and bring our deepest needs and desires before him. In prayer we encounter the living Spirit of God who speaks to us and works to heal us and shape us into the likeness of Christ.

 

Prayer for Holy Trinity’s Ministries

Thank you for participating with us in our Day of Prayer for Holy Trinity’s Ministries on Sept. 12. We hope you will continue to pray for our ministries throughout the year using the Day of Prayer booklet. In it, you’ll find descriptions of 17 ministries and the prayer requests for each to aid you.

Download or view our Day of Prayer booklet below.

How to Pray

Download this Lenten prayer booklet that Rev. Claudia Greggs put together for us, Forty Days with the Psalms, and read through all 150 psalms. We’ll praise God in the morning, acknowledge him at noon and petition him at night. We hope you’ll make this part of your prayer discipline during Lent – and beyond.

Please note that the Psalms translation used in this booklet is found in the Anglican Church in North America’s Book of Common Prayer 2019 and here is a quote from their new prayer book regarding this translation: “The Coverdale Psalter of 1535 (employed with every Prayer Book from the mid-16th to the mid-20th centuries) is one of the timeless treasures of the Book of Common Prayer. It has here been renewed for contemporary use… The numbering of verses in the New Coverdale Psalter in certain psalms may differ from the numbering found in other translations.” (page 268, Book of Common Prayer, Anglican Church in North America)

You can trust our team members to pray faithfully according to Scripture and to keep your prayer requests confidential.
