prayer ministries
The mission of the Prayer Ministry at New Covenant is to mobilize and disciple people and to provide prayer opportunities so they may come into communion with God. Listed below are the different Prayer Ministries at New Covenant.
Here at New Covenant, we hold the conviction, powerfully defined by Walter Wink, that "history belongs to the intercessors, who believe (and pray) the future into being.”
The week of September 6th through September 13th, New Covenant is excited to join in the Global Week of 24/7 Prayer, united with Christians all over the world to call on the name of Jesus, petitioning God to move powerfully and freshly in our homes, city, country, and across our world.
This week of prayer aims to spend those 7 days interceding through prayer for every hour of the week, 168 hours of prayer. As we enter into this intention, we invite YOU to sign up for a one-hour time slot to pray that week.
We know for some of you, the idea of praying for one hour straight is daunting enough to decline this ask immediately. We encourage you to set aside any hesitations and say yes. We will have different prayer prompts to help guide you during your time of prayer, including a prayer guide for praying as a family with children and students. With the resources we will have available, an hour of prayer will come more easily.
Throughout the week, we will have an intentional prayer room set up in the Chapel from 6:00 am to 9:00 pm daily with different stations to guide you during your time of prayer. During the time slots between 10:00 pm and 5:00 am, we ask that you be in prayer wherever you are during that time, or use the 24 Hour Prayer Room on the far southwestern corner of the Discipleship Center, available to use with keypad access. The access number is 0431, as in Acts 4:31: "After they prayed, the place where they were meeting was shaken. And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and spoke the word of God boldly."
You can sign up for one or multiple time slots by following the link below or stopping by the Connection Point on Sunday.
We are so humbled and grateful that God is continuing to do amazing things in and through our church family. We believe this week of intentional prayer will be another marker of the magnificent nearness and work of our mighty God!

This team joins in prayer for requests made through the online Prayer Request Form, New Covenant’s PrayerNet, the Prayer Phone Line, and the Prayer Boxes located throughout New Covenant’s facilities. Every Wednesday evening this team prepares the Worship Center for Sunday morning services by arranging items, such as the prayer request cards, within the pews and praying for the needs of those who will be sitting in each seat the following Sunday. This team also writes notes of hope and encouragement to persons on the prayer list each week. It’s a great team that grows together by encouraging and supporting each other while becoming friends (and having a lot of fun in the process).
