Prayer is a central part of Epiphany’s identity and one of the deepest expressions of our life together. We are committed to praying for one another, our leadership, the community and the world.
If you have a need for prayer, please take advantage of the prayer available to you. All requests are treated with confidentiality. Here are some of the ways we demonstrate our trust in God’s love for the world and the church.
Call (703) 389-7292 between 8 a.m. and 10 p.m.
Throughout the week, the prayer line is ready for urgent or immediate prayer requests. A team of intercessors committed to praying for those needs is contacted right away.
Sometimes we come to church with a burden. After Communion and after each service, a team of two waits in the prayer corner for anyone who has something they want to offer to God. You can also write your request on a sticker and add it to the prayer wall; requests are passed on to a team who pray through the week and at chapel services.
Partners in Prayer is a dedicated group that gathers monthly during the vestry meeting to pray intentionally for the church’s leadership. The group also meets online the following week to pray over requests brought by ministry leaders, forming a foundation of prayerful support for the governance of the church and its leaders.
This ministry matches one or two people with a specific church leader (clergy, staff, vestry, or ministry leaders) to support them with their requests. Each person commits to pray daily for that leader over a four-month period.
