Prayer

Seeking God together through prayer, faith, and dependence upon Him.

A Church That Prays

Prayer is at the heart of our relationship with God and our life together as His people.

At Lai Baptist Church, we believe prayer is not simply a church activity. Prayer is our response to God's grace, our dependence upon His wisdom, and our opportunity to bring our needs, families, church, community, and the world before Him.

Why We Pray

Prayer shapes our relationship with God and strengthens us to serve others faithfully.

Worship

We pray because God is worthy of our worship, praise, thanksgiving, and devotion.

Dependence

Prayer reminds us that we depend upon God rather than trusting only in ourselves.

Intercession

We bring the needs of our families, church, community, and world before the Lord.

Faith

Through prayer we trust God's character, wisdom, timing, and promises.

Praying Together

Christian prayer is both personal and communal. We pray privately, but we also gather together as the body of Christ to seek God's will and encourage one another.

As a church family, we desire to cultivate a culture where prayer is a natural and faithful part of worship, discipleship, ministry, and everyday Christian life.

Prayer in Every Season

In times of joy, we give thanks. In times of difficulty, we seek God's strength. When we need wisdom, we ask Him for guidance. When others are hurting, we intercede for them.
