Weekly Prayer Guide

Prayer is vital to everything we do at Immanuel. In prayer, we do not simply ask for our needs to be met, but seek God's presence and ask Him to bring His kingdom on earth as it is in heaven. ln prayer we enjoy time with God, knowing that he welcomes us as His beloved children.

Our Prayer Coordinator, Melissa Fischer, writes a weekly prayer guide, often related to the week's sermon text. Scroll down to view this week's guide, or to download a copy, click here.

Immanuel Church Weekly Prayer Guide

During the forty days of Lent, we’ll meditate each week on a passage that leads us into self-examination and repentance, so that we can more fully appreciate our need for a Savior and experience God’s gift of grace through the cross of Christ.


The earth is the Lord’s, and everything in it,

the world and all who live in it;

for he founded it upon the seas and established it upon the waters.

Who may ascend the hill of the Lord?

Who may stand in his holy place?

He who has clean hands and a pure heart,

who does not lift up his soul to an idol

or swear by what is false.

He will receive blessing from the Lord

and vindication from God his Savior.


Psalm 24:1-5
