Church leadership is increasingly aware of the need for prayer to permeate every activity of church organizations: workers meetings, constituency meetings, board meetings, committee meetings, planning sessions, and the leadership of each church pastor in his* congregation.

(*For the sake of smooth reading the pronoun "his" or "him"is used as a generic term including both genders.)

The need exists in every church for prayer coordinators to promote prayer as a vital and growing part of ministry to each other within the church and in outreach to friends and neighbors.

The following pages outline a proven prayer ministry which has increased spirituality and outreach where it has been presented and applied. This plan can be used in conjunction with the prayer ministry your church is already using or can be the foundation for a whole new ministry. It can be modified and adjusted to meet the needs of your congregation.
