Healing Prayer

Please join us for our next Healing Prayer Worship Services, Saturday, October 19 at 5 p.m. and Sunday, October 20 at 9 and 11:15 a.m.  At these services, faithful people will be available to pray with you at prayer stations located throughout the Sanctuary during the time of Holy Communion.

The Healing Prayer Ministry Team provides a place to live out James’ call to prayer in and for our faith community. Four times a year, special services for prayer and healing are offered during a special afternoon vigil. 
Worshipers have an opportunity to be anointed with oil and to have someone pray with them. Whatever your prayer - whether you need prayers for relief from suffering, thanksgiving and praise, healing, or forgiveness - you are welcome.  

If you like to pray and would like to be part of the Healing Prayer Team, please contact Marcie Watson, Director of Spiritual Transformation at marciew@firstlutherancr.org or (319) 365-1494, extension 107.

Prayer Chain

The Prayer Chain is a vital part of First Lutheran's prayer ministry. We are a people of prayer and this network of people is committed to prayer on behalf of the congregation based on Jesus’ words to "ask and you will receive, seek and you will find, knock and the door will be opened,"  (Matthew 7:7). The importance of the prayer chain is that it faithfully intercedes on behalf of others in need by lifting up specific requests, concerns and emergency situations.  All prayer requests submitted to the prayer chain are held strictly confidential.
 
If you have the gift of intercession and are interested in being part of our Prayer Chain team, please send your email address to Tammy Horak at TammyH@firstlutherancr.org. Prayer requests are sent out weekly on Mondays
and throughout the week, as needed.

Prayer Shawl Ministry

Wrapped in Prayer
Over the years, the Prayer Shawl Ministry has given well over 650 shawls to people who are suffering or celebrating. Shawls are primarily knitted or crocheted from home with gathering events periodically throughout the year to learn the basics, to be inspired, or to simply visit with friends as you create. 

Come and Knit with Us!
The next gathering for both new and experienced knitters will be on Saturday, October 19, 2019, 9-11 a.m., in room 312.

Whether you’ve been knitting prayer shawls for years – or wanted to but didn’t know where to begin – please join us to learn the basics, receive help and inspiration from some “old pros,” or simply visit with friends as you knit.

Thanks to a generous Thrivent Financial Action Team grant, we have yarn available to use. If you’re new to creating shawls needles are also available if you’d like to try it before you invest. Yummy snacks will be provided too! For details, contact Marla Thompson at 395-0646.
