Prayer and Intercession

Ascension is blessed with a ministry of intercessory prayer through the work of the Ascension Prayer Chain. It is the business of the Prayer Chain to pray immediately for whatever concerns the people of Ascension Parish may bring to their attention.

Join us in praying for …

• The parish family known as Ascension Episcopal Church and the Vestry
• Guests who come to Ascension
• Our Individual and Corporate practice of Christian Stewardship
• The Ascension Episcopal School: The students, their families, their teachers,
  the staff and the board
• The cities and towns where our members live
• Those in the larger community who are engaged in activities that corrupt
  and destroy the lives and souls of children, youth, women and men
• Christian Formation leaders: Children’s Ministry and Adult Programs
• The Compass Class
• Youth Ministry
• College Students
• Stephen Ministers
• Community of Hope Lay Chaplains
• Parish Ministries
• Staff members and their families
• Clergy family
• Missionaries: our Ascension volunteers to the prison system;
  WHAM volunteers Peace Officers and Fire Fighters
• Those in the Armed Forces
• The sick
• Those who have died

Prayer requests may be placed on the chain by contacting either of the captains or any member of the chain. Prayer request cards are available in the pews. Those who may feel a call to this ministry are welcome.
