Prayer Chaplains

"Prayer reweaves the fabric of the universe."

- Marianne Williamson

Chaplains are here to pray with you, to hold everything in strict confidence, and to know for you that your prayers are answered. Trained Chaplains are available after Sunday and Wednesday night services to pray individually with you. "This is a very powerful experience," we are told by many who have prayed with us.

Chaplains also call each SLC member monthly as a personal way to pray and celebrate life experiences. Spirit moves through the miracles we are all experiencing through the power of prayer.

What is a Prayer Chaplain?

• A Prayer Chaplain acknowledges and calls on the presence of God
• A Prayer Chaplain lovingly listens
• A Prayer Chaplain prays from the heart
• A Prayer Chaplain holds in confidence what is shared

What a Prayer Chaplain is not...

Prayer Chaplains are not ordained, are not trained to counsel, fix or advise others and are not accredited by any national organization. Prayer Chaplains are not trained to go out and "minister" to the community-at-large but are trained as a lay resource to help meet the pastoral care needs within their church community.

There is an annual Chaplain training each January for new Chaplains to enter the program. We ask for a one-year commitment. 2010 is the eightth year of the SLC Prayer Chaplain ministry.

Come pray with us.
