​Prayer Chain
 
We have prayer time in each of our services but we also have a telephone prayer chain to encourage prayer for needs during the week. If you would like to be a part of our prayer team, or want more information, call the church office at 717-272-0418 or email cumcwebmaster1@gmail.com. Provide your phone number and it will be added to our "one call" messaging system. For those of you who travel and want to be kept up to date with prayer concerns, provide us with your cell phone number as well as your home phone number. You will then receive voice messages that will allow you to hear the prayer concerns. If you no longer want to remain on the prayer chain, call or send an email stating you want your name removed.
​The Power of Prayer
​
The central quality of prayer is its power to bring us into a direct and intimate relationship with God. Prayer calls us away from a state of preoccupation with our minds, into a sacred space where He can shower us with mercy and love. Henri Nowen calls this a life-giving gift.
​
"The faithful discipline of prayer reveals to you that you are the blessed one and gives you the power to bless others"                     
Kinds of Prayer
There are many ways to enter into prayer with God, including intercessory prayer, prayer of praise and worship, lament, meditation, corporate prayer, praying the Scriptures, and praying as we move through our everyday lives. These practices place us directly before God, where we can receive the gift of His grace.

​
Prayer Partners
Prayer partners at CUMC are a group of worshipers who have agreed to dedicate their time and energy to lifting up others in prayer. They have a caring heart turned toward the Holy Spirit and a caring heart for others. They surround those in need, including individuals, church leaders, volunteers, mission leaders and participants, offering prayer on their behalf and praying with them. This group is also immersed in prayer for discernment and compassion for members of the community and the congregation at CUMC.
