Prayer
At Smyrna First we
strongly believe that everything we are or hope to be begins with
prayer. Through our various
prayer ministries we are ready to pray for you and to praise God with
you, confident in the power of the Holy Spirit and God’s amazing grace
through our Lord Jesus Christ.
Prayer

May
We Pray For You?
- Church
Staff - Each
Tuesday morning the Church staff meets and prays over the requests that
have
been submitted that week.
- Wednesday
Morning Prayer Group – These
volunteer prayer warriors meet
in the Chapel each Wednesday at 9:30 am, to offer intercessory prayer
for the
weekly requests.
- The
Prayer Team –
Each prayer request is assigned to a Prayer
Team volunteer who prays over it for as long as it remains a concern.
The overall responsibility
of this team is to set the prayer vision for Smyrna First, encourage
personal and
corporate prayer, and coordinate prayer events & training.
- Request
a Prayer Pager – available on loan to members who are hurting and want
prayer. As the church family prays for them,
they dial
the pager number and a “prayer sent” message transmits to the
pager.

We take seriously the admonition
of our Lord
to “bear one
another’s burdens”.

Rejoicing in hope, persevering
in tribulation, devoted to prayer.
