Prayer & Care
Need Prayer?
No matter what stage in your life, there will be someone willing to meet with you. If you need prayer, our Prayer Team is available to confidentially meet with you after the 9:30 and 11 am services in St. Paul’s Chapel. You are also welcome to join the members of our Prayer Team who meet on Zoom once a month, on the first Monday of each month from 4-5 pm.
You can submit prayer requests by filling out the Connection Card in person on Sundays, or online.
If you’d like to be added to the Prayers of the People read on Sundays, or the Prayer Chain (prayed for throughout the week by our prayer team), please contact us.


Pastoral Care
Our pastoral team is available to meet with you if you’re grieving, sick, or dealing with other life difficulties. We offer help from a Christian perspective and can make referrals to grief counselors or support groups like DivorceCare or GriefShare if necessary.

Each session will incorporate a spiritual aspect by beginning with prayer and closing with a hymn.
