Prayer has been an essential part of LJCC from its inception in February of 2005. God has blessed LJCC every step of the way, and He has taught us to trust Him and His timing. Our fervent prayers as individuals and as a dynamic group continue steadfastly to this day.
Prayer is a powerful way to stay in touch with our Father. We believe in praying for LJCC, its needs, leaders and growth. It is especially important for all of us to pray for each other.
Email Prayer Chain
The Prayer Team gathers all prayer requests from Sunday and then sends them by email to the over 50 "prayer warriors" on our prayer chain, who are all faithful and obedient in keeping every prayer confidential.
To request prayer or become involved, contact Scott Lee at scottleelaw@yahoo.com.
Prayer For Our Nation
Every Wednesday at noon, a group of people gathers in our sanctuary for a non-political and non-denominational hour of prayer. Come for five minutes or stay the entire hour. We encourage you to bring your friends and co-workers. Contact Pat MacCracken for info at rmaccra1@san.rr.com.
Sunday Intercessory Prayer
Members of our Prayer Team are available on Sunday mornings after services to pray with those who would like one-on-one prayer. For information contact Arlana Holland at arlanaholland@yahoo.com.
Annual Prayer Vigil (June 10th and 11th)
Every year, LJCC offers a Vigil to coincide with Pentecost. Throughout the vigil, every person in our church is prayed for multiple times by those who come to pray. There are also stations set up for journaling, kneeling before the cross in prayer, and praying with others. Don't miss out on this incredible opportunity to bring your requests and praises before the Lord in prayer. All ages are welcome! Come out to LJCC on Friday, June 10th from 8 am - 10 pm and again on Saturday, June 11th from 8 am - 1 pm.
Prayer Garden
Due to a generous gift from an anonymous donor, we have a Prayer Garden on the north side of the sanctuary. Special care has been put into designing this garden as a beautiful, quiet place for prayer and meditation. Special features include a seating area and a fountain and plants native to Israel. Be sure to visit this area!
Prayer Shawl Ministry
The Prayer Shawl Ministry knits prayer shawls for members of the congregation. To date, over 80 prayer shawls have been made!
When the shawl is given, it is given with a prayer. The prayer will tell a story of the shawl. The stitches used are knit in three to represent the Trinity and while making the shawl, we will pray for the person that will receive the shawl. We pray that the receiver feels God's love, is cradled in comfort, hope and joy, and graced with peace and love. For more information or to get involved, please contact Pat MacCracken at (858) 454-6682 or rmaccra1@san.rr.com.
