Prayer Team

A dedicated team of volunteers provides confidential prayer support. Our desire is to be a safe place and a listening ear as you seek God’s heart, healing, and restoration. We offer a variety of opportunities to receive prayer, and we invite you to come at a time that works for you.

Sundays – During Worship

Prayer teams are available at the 9:15 AM and the 10:45 AM services in the Sanctuary and Auditorium. Teams will be available to pray with you during our last time of worship as well as in the post-service window.

Seasons of Prayer

Seasons of Prayer is a ministry for those desiring extended times of prayer. Over three sessions, you will meet with a prayer minister for one hour. If interested, please fill out an application to help us understand more about your prayer needs.

Refresh – Thursdays, 12:00–1:00 PM

Refresh is a weekly prayer gathering in the Auditorium that offers an atmosphere of quiet worship along with prayer ministers available to silently pray over you. Come and go as your schedule allows.

Healing Prayer Training

We offer two levels of prayer training for those who would like to learn how to pray for people. After you complete Level 1, you are eligible to apply for the Prayer Ministry Team at Third Church. Even if you do not want to serve on a prayer team, we welcome anyone to be equipped to pray well for their own family and friends. For more information on training, contact Steph Hietbrink.

Care Companions are laypeople assigned to walk with a person one-on-one over several years with the purpose of building lasting relationships. They provide care to people of Third Church who are experiencing longer-term care needs.

Meals are offered short-term during times of difficulty/illness.
