PRAYER CHAIN A prayer chain is a group of people committed to praying for a specific reason or person for a pre-determined period of time. Typically, a prayer chain starts with one person who shares a prayer need with the group, then the request is passed along to the members of the group to pray over daily. Currently, prayer requests are given to our administrator, Cindy, and added to our prayers of the people on Sunday mornings. St. Thomas would once again like to have a prayer chain in place by May 1st. If you would like to join this prayer team, please speak with Linda Ubry, Katharine MacCornack or Michelle Wagner. Daily prayers from our members for people in difficult times are one of the most effective ways to do ministry beyond the walls of St. Thomas.
