THE PRAYER PLACE - NEW ISLAND - WIDE, ECUMENICAL PRAYER GROUP BEGINS.
By Sue Kaiser, Prayer Ministry Coordinator

As a follow up to the April Prayer Event at Trinity with Dr. Roy Miller, several women from Island Churches who attended, recognized their common hope to have an on-going monthly prayer group devoted to prayer for Island needs as well as well as wider and personal concerns. After consultation with the Island Ministerium, an invitation was sent to all Island Christian churches inviting each to send folks who have a similar desire to pray and work together as Christians.
The first organizing and prayer meeting was held here at Trinity, August 17th with 12 attending representing 7 churches. After hearing some of the history of prayer life on Grand Island during the early 1970's, folks introduced themselves and one personal concern and a time of prayer closed the meeting. The group definitely has high hopes and dreams for Grand Island's prayer life together and trust that God's Spirit is leading in this opportunity.
Meeting places may change from time to time, for now we will be meeting in Trinity's Prayer Room, inviting others who have a heart for praying - in a variety of ways. Next meeting, Sept 21st from 7-9. Have ?'s
