Jesus
told his disciples a parable on the necessity of praying always and
never losing heart...
"Whoever asks receives, whoever
seeks finds, to whoever knocks is admitted. What Father among you would
give his son a snake if he asks for a fish, or hand him a scorpion if
he asks for an egg? If you, with all your sins, know how to give good
things to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give
the Holy Spirit to those who ask Him?"
-Luke 11:10-13
As Christians, we believe that prayer
is the most powerful force in heaven and earth. As parishioners at St.
Clement Church, we pledge to raise up the needs of our brothers and
sisters in ceaseless prayer to God our Father.
St. Clement's is pleased to invite you
to participate in a Parish Prayer Team Ministry. You
can participate in one of two ways:
• Become a Prayer Team
Member: Parishioners are invited to meet each Wednesday from
11:00am to 12:00pm (noon) and pray for the expressed needs of others.
Please contact the parish office to indicate your interest in
participating as a member of this prayer team.
• Send in your Prayer
Requests: Let us know if you have particular concerns or
intentions for which we can pray. Prayer intentions may be of different
kinds --

Prayers of Petition: Express Particular
needs

Prayers of Praise: Tell the Wonders of God

Prayers of Thanksgiving: What has God
done for You?

Prayers of Intercession: Who else needs
prayers?
You may call in or mail your prayers
to the parish office or place your petition in the regular collection
basket.
All prayer requests will be
held in sacred confidence.
As members of the Family of God, we
care for all our brothers and sisters. Prayer is the most effective way
we can express that love. Let us raise you, your needs, and your loved
ones to the Lord.
Jesus Said, "When the Son of
Man comes, will he find any faith on earth?" As St. Clement
Church, we pray that our faith will be sustained and given increase
through these spiritual exercises for the good of others.
