Prayer
Here at Crossroads, we believe in the power of prayer. We are committed to the practice of prayer both individually and corporately. As a result, we see the hand of God moving in our lives, and in the lives of those around us.
Learn How to Pray
In 2023, our church led us through a message series on prayer called Into the Deep. It covered the importance of prayer, how to pray, and other practical tips. This series will help you grow in the spiritual discipline of prayer.
Message Series on PrayerCorporate Prayer Opportunities
Currently, we have two opportunities for corporate prayer that are both open to anyone who would want to attend.
- Our pre-service prayer happens every Sunday at 8:10 am. We pray for our Sunday services and all the ministries happening on campus, as well as those who will be joining us for church.
- Prayer360 is an opportunity for our church family to join together in around-the-clock prayer. You can sign up for a 30-minute time slot and follow our prayer guide as you pray each day. Click HERE to get started.
How Can We Pray For You?
We know that it’s not always easy to open up and share what’s going on in your life. But life gets messy, and no matter who we are, we need people to come alongside and support us in prayer. If you need prayer for a specific need, let us know and your request will go to a committed team of prayer partners who regularly meet and lift people up to God in prayer.
Please don’t include advertising, vulgarity, political agendas, slander, personal information such as phone numbers or addresses, or personal accusations.
We pray over many requests each day so please keep it an appropriate length so we can give each request equal attention.
If this is an emergency, please call 911.
If you would like to speak with a chaplain, please call 360-256-9711 and ask for a chaplain.
If you are considering taking your life, please call 1-800-273-8255 (National Suicide Prevention Lifeline).

Heavenly Father,
I lift up Michael to You. You see his grief, his worries, and the weight of tomorrow. Lord, calm his anxious heart and fill him with Your peace.
As Michael goes into these job interviews, give him confidence in the abilities You’ve given him. Guide his words, steady his spirit, and let him feel Your presence right beside him. Lord, open the doors that are meant for him and close the ones that are not.
Surround Michael with comfort, strength, and hope, and remind him that his future is safe in Your hands.
In Jesus’ name, Amen. -
As I struggle financially in this phase of my life and currently trying to make ends meet, I have received a 30 day notice to vacate my apartment and will have nowhere to go but my car to live if I cannot pay my rent. I find myself losing my faith and trying to lean on my own understanding while under pressure and need prayers to help me through my situation while still holding onto my faith and trusting that God will provide if only I can bring myself to submit and hand all my troubles over to him.

From our home to theirs, I lift up my Helping Hands family to You. I’m so thankful and proud of them for the way they serve and for the love they are showing. Lord, I ask that You keep each of them strong in spirit and in health. Bless their families and give them peace.
Thank You for the people we are reaching — that they are beginning to know us and trust us. May they see Your love through every meal shared, every smile given, and every hand extended.
Continue to guide us, Lord, so that everything we do brings glory to You.
In Jesus’ name, Amen.
