Potluck and Prayer on July 15

“God always meets us where we are and slowly moves us along into deeper things.” – Richard Foster

We have decided to be a community that is learning to pray. We believe prayer will help us to heal, to love, and to hear. We believe we will learn about ourselves, and the people with whom we worship and serve. And we believe it is something we must learn to do together. Join us this Friday evening for an opportunity to continue learning to pray. We begin with sharing a light potluck meal at 6:30 pm at the church and then pray together as a group, taking turns as each of us feels moved to pray.

Potluck and Prayer on July 1

June 13, 2011 by Bill Scharffenberg  

“I think my experience with prayer is not much different from most – the Jesus I was raised with was a cosmic santa claus. You had to be flattering to butter Him up, but also concise, as He was very busy…… Many years later I still fight my early tendencies, yet struggle I will.

“Coming to our prayer sessions on Friday nights has been a good exercise for me. I am not always in the mood but the discipline is so good in my life.

“Learning to give God control, trying to discern what His plans are, and letting Him allign my heart to His is never a boring ride! Not always easy, always worthwhile.”

– Nancy Sayers, member at Crossroads

We will begin with a potluck dinner together at 6:30. Following dinner, we will spend about an hour in prayer and finish up around 8:00. We practice an informal prayer where we are each still learning what it means to pray. You may chose to pray out loud with us, or listen and pray silently.

Are you experiencing a hungering desire to know yourself better? To get closer to God? To make a difference in your community? These yearnings are inborn—yet it may take you years to appropriately identify them. Once recognized, how do you deal with these longings, which leave you restlessly empty until satisfied? Prayer! Prayer moves you inward into personal transformation, upward toward intimacy with God, and outward to minister to others.
