Prayer

Learn to Pray

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. 

In 2023, our church went 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.

Corporate Prayer Opportunities

Monthly Prayer Meeting

Third Thursday of the Month at 9 AM

We gather for our Monthly Prayer Meeting from 9 AM to 10 AM in the Reach Center, located on the south side of the Family Room. Intentional time is spent praying for local, national, and global needs, as well as the personal needs of those who attend. The heart behind these gatherings is to provide a welcoming, non-intimidating space for anyone to come and pray, no matter where they are in their journey of faith.

Prayer360 is an opportunity for our church family to join together in around-the-clock prayer. Find weekly prayer prompts as we lift up our church, city, nation, and world to the Lord.

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.

My name is Heather, and I am about to turn 55. I’ve been through deep loss and grief that has changed my life. I was married to the love of my life for nearly 30 years, and together we raised five sons. We built a life centered around family, love, and hard work. In 2015, my son Vincent, who was 23, was in a severe car accident and suffered a traumatic brain injury. I held onto faith and hope as I stayed by his side, and eventually brought him home on hospice, believing for a miracle. After 15 days at home, he passed away in February 2016. Losing him broke my heart. After his passing, my husband and I grew even closer, supporting each other through our grief. Then in July 2018, my husband suddenly passed away from severe heart disease with no warning. Losing him so unexpectedly, after already losing my son, left me shattered. Since then, my children have grown and moved on, and I’ve been left feeling alone and struggling with depression and a deep sense of loss. I’ve withdrawn from others and often feel like I’m not truly living anymore. I question my purpose and why I’m still here. I grew up in a Christian home and know in my heart that God loves me, but I have felt distant from Him after everything I’ve been through. I am now longing for guidance, community, and prayer, and I’m asking for help in finding my way back to the Lord.

Please pray for my husband and me as we grieve the loss of our baby, Riley. I found out I was pregnant at 4 weeks and we lost the pregnancy at 6 weeks. In that short time, we had already begun imagining a future and a life with Riley, and the loss has been deeply heartbreaking for both of us. Right now I am feeling lost and I am struggling with sadness and questions about my faith. Please pray that we would find comfort, peace, and strength as we grieve Riley together. Pray that we can feel God’s presence even in this pain and slowly find hope again. Thank you for keeping our family and our baby Riley in your prayers.
