Prayer Chain

The Prayer Chain has been in existence for fifteen years!  It consists of about 14 people, most of them SIJ parishioners, who pray for the intentions of others. The chain starts when someone calls or emails a prayer request. The coordinator then passes that request onto other members of the chain, and they pass it along to others, and so on, until every member of the chain has received the request. Members pray regularly for the request until it is withdrawn. The intentions may be for help in a job search, the needs of family members, help during periods of illness, etc. The prayer chain members communicate by email and phone; no meetings are needed. Members pray for the intentions in the manner that best suits them, at times that are convenient for them. New members are welcome at any time.

If you have a prayer request or would like to pray for the needs of our parish, please get in touch with the coordinator.
