Ministries / Prayer Ministry

Prayer Ministry

As a church and a community, Grace DC considers how to pray - both corporately and individually. Praying together as a church community helps us as we individually struggle with unbelief, forces us to be honest with God and one another, and changes our perspectives. We come to him humbly because we know our faith, our lives and the life of our community depend on Him. We pray because we have glimpsed the power of God at work in our lives and the lives of countless others, and we long to see God’s grace radically change our lives, our city and the world.

Current Prayer Opportunities Include:

  • Weekly on Capitol Hill: Wednesday mornings from 7:15 to 8:15 am.

Can we pray for you?

  • Email your prayer request to prayerATgracedc.net so that the Prayer Team can be praying for you. We want to respect your privacy, so please include “confidential” in the subject line if you’d like it to be for the Elders only.
  • Write your prayer request on the Keeping Connected sheet in the back of your bulletin and put it in the offering basket during the Sunday worship service. Indicate on the front of the sheet if your request is confidential (for Elders only) or if it is for the Prayer Team.
  • Meet with a member of the diaconate at the front left of the sanctuary, immediately following the Sunday worship service to pray with them.
