Christian Community Intercessory Prayer

A Weekly Prayer Meeting Open to All Denominations and Communities

“Pray without ceasing.” — 1 Thessalonians 5:17

We begin with a Corporate Prayer of Thanksgiving, Worship, and Repentance before Evangelist Samuel A. Jones, Jr. leads us in intercessory prayer. After the “Amen,” you’re invited to jump in and pray, or simply touch and agree with us in the Spirit as we pray together. We’re praying every Tuesday beginning at 7:30 a.m.

You are welcome to join us live on Zoom using the information below.

ZOOM PRAYER MEETINGS WILL NOT BE RECORDED.

Our intercessory prayer meetings will no longer be recorded in order to respect the privacy of those for whom we pray and the situations shared with us.

Zoom Participation Note

To help keep our prayer time orderly and free from unnecessary distractions, the host may temporarily mute a participant if there is excessive background noise or another disruption. Participants are welcome to unmute and join in prayer after “Amen” as they feel led.

Monthly Intercessory Prayer Focus

As we gather each Tuesday morning for intercessory prayer, we will use a monthly prayer focus to help guide our time together and ensure that we are intentionally praying for a broad range of people, needs, communities, and situations.

Our weekly focus is not intended to limit our prayers. We will always make room for urgent needs, prayer requests, and whatever people, concerns, or situations God places upon our hearts.

1st Tuesday — The Church
We pray for Christian churches everywhere as they lift up the name of Jesus; pastors and ministry leaders; missionaries and evangelists; unity within the Body of Christ; spiritual growth; and the work of the Gospel throughout the world.

The Persecuted Church Around the World
Pray for Christians who face persecution, violence, imprisonment, displacement, discrimination, or restrictions because of their faith; for pastors, missionaries, and churches serving under dangerous conditions; for protection, courage, and faithfulness; for persecutors to encounter Christ; and for governments to uphold freedom of religion and conscience.

Regions of Special Prayer
Each month, we will also highlight particular regions where Christians are under pressure and facing fierce persecution. These may include China; Nigeria, including areas affected by Boko Haram and the Islamic State West Africa Province (ISWAP) ; Burkina Faso and other parts of the Sahel; the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), especially Eastern DRC; Libya and parts of North Africa; Mozambique; Eritrea; North Korea; Iran; Pakistan; Somalia; Yemen; Sudan; Syria; Afghanistan; India; Myanmar; and other places where believers are suffering for their faith.

2nd Tuesday — Families & Children
We pray for marriages, parents, grandparents, foster parents, teachers, children, youth, schools, families experiencing hardship, children who are vulnerable or without adequate support, children who have been snatched away from their families, are being trafficked, molested, abused, and neglected, and the strengthening and restoration of families.

3rd Tuesday — Healing & Personal Needs
We pray for the sick, hospitalized, home bound, caregivers, those undergoing treatment or surgery, people experiencing grief or emotional distress, and those facing financial, employment, housing, or other personal challenges.

4th Tuesday — Communities, Nation & World
We pray for our neighborhoods and communities, government leaders, schools, justice and peace, those affected by violence, poverty, war, natural disasters, persecution, displacement, and humanitarian crises throughout the world.

5th Tuesday — Open Intercession
When there is a fifth Tuesday, we devote our time to open intercession—praying for whatever needs, people, concerns, and situations God places upon our hearts.

Throughout every prayer meeting, we remain sensitive to the leading of the Holy Spirit and make room to pray for needs beyond the designated focus. We will also continue to lift up those whose names and situations have been shared with us.

Until then, let’s continue to keep one another lifted up in prayer.

KEEP THE FAITH!
