Prayer Ministries
Dedication of the new LifeChurch Sanctuary – Special Call to Prayer:
With the new LifeChurch Sanctuary and ministry center only nine weeks away from completion, I believe the Lord has given me a fresh mandate from Heaven as we approach its finish. This morning as I was praying I felt the Lord encourage me to call our LifeChurch family and friends to a special time of consecration and dedication in the new Sanctuary with seven days of 24/7 worship and intercession. Starting at 3:00 p.m. Sunday April 4th (Resurrection Sunday) and continuing through Saturday April 10th at 3:00 p.m. the Lord’s heart for us is to offer continual prayer, bible reading and whenever possible, live worship in the new Sanctuary. We also hope to launch our “live internet webcast” from the Sanctuary of LifeChurch on Sunday April 4th that will stream our weekly Sunday “Encounter and Awakening”, our weekly Tuesday “Open Heaven Worship and Intercession”, our monthly “Third Watch All-Night Prayer”, and the inaugural “7 Days of 24/7 Worship and Intercession.” I will have a sign-up sheet in the foyer for worship leaders and prayer partners to select times and dates during the 7 days. You can also reply to me, via this email, and select your times as well. This promises to be a season of great spiritual intimacy and outpouring for all of us in the presence of the Lord Jesus. I want to thank you in advance for being a part of this special call to draw near to the Father’s heart through prayer and worship.
God Bless You,
Pastor Randy
At Life Church prayer is the priority of our fellowship. We realize intercession sets a fertile atmosphere for the Holy Spirit to do His work of healing and deliverance in both the seeker and the believer alike. Prayer helps produce a heightened level of praise, worship, conviction from the Holy Spirit in our Worship Services and in the lives of all who are serve in this important ministry. Dave Traxler (right) has been directed by the Holy Spirit to not just encourage people to focus upon what they are praying for, but rather focus on the One we are praying too. He believes the prayer movement we are experiencing at Life Church is a result God’s people crying out to Him and seeking his face.
If we call upon the Lord in prayer, He has promised in His word to answer. If we intercede for the lost, He has promised to bring the unsaved to Himself. If we seek Him with all our heart He has promised that we will experience Him and to pour out His Spirit among us. If we pray for one another, He has promised to heal us. If we humble ourselves and pray for our nation, He has promised to heal our land. If we do these things unto the Lord, He has promised to reward us openly.
The Lord is responding to our prayers. He is moving among us to change hearts, save souls, heal the sick, and birth new ministry to reach the hurting around us. To contact Dave for more information or to be trained for prayer ministry please send your email message detrax77@yahoo.com
Tuesday Night Prayer Meeting – 7:00 p.m.: Tuesday night prayer is without doubt the most important ministry of the church. It is our means of touching the heart of God and inviting Him to move among us. As we have participated in this ministry, we have experienced the privilege of partnering with God as He has worked His will in the lives of people to change, save, heal and set free. We truly believe that our weekly corporate prayer meeting on Tuesday nights has been a powerful tool in the hand of God to accomplish the awesome things we are continuing to experience at CLC on a daily basis.

ntercessory Prayer: Shawn and Melissa Pallotta oversee our intercessory prayer ministry. Life Church was established by God through prayer. From the very beginning, the leadership of Life Church placed the highest priority on giving place to intercessory prayer and all those who humble themselves to pray in this way. The Bible says that Jesus intercedes before the Father on our behalf as His people. To participate in intercessory prayer is the high privilege of every born again believer. You can join our intercessory prayer team by contacting Dave, or Shawn and Melissa Pollatta (email Shawn and Melissa at ShawnandMelissa@clcalive.com
Worship Service Prayer: It is very important that during our Life Church worship services we have believers interceding for the Pastor, Worship Team and the ones attending our services. The purpose of this time of prayer is to gain and maintain an atmosphere conducive to the working of the Holy Spirit during worship and the preaching of God’s word in our Sunday Morning services. It is Dave’s desire to get dedicated intercessors to join with him and others before and during Sunday worship services to pray in the prayer room. He will be offering invitations through the bulletin and periodic announcements from the pulpit to encourage participation.
Alter Prayer Ministry: Dave is continuing to train and develop the members of Life Church to become involved in the Alter Prayer Ministry of Life Church on a scheduled basis.
Sanctuary Prayer: For your enjoyment and edification, our Sanctuary at Life Church is open from 9:00 a.m. through 4:00 p.m., Monday through Thursday. The leadership of Life Church desires to create a “house of prayer” unto the Lord continually. The Sanctuary is an awesome place for our members, attendees and community to come spend time in prayer. The Sanctuary is a very special place for you to get away and give yourself to God without distractions or interruptions. Everyone is welcome.
Friday Third Watch Prayer: On the third Friday of every month at Life Church is the “Third Watch” all night prayer meeting. Beginning at 8:00 p.m. and ending at 6:00 a.m., this prayer meeting is a time of intercession for the families, leaders, missionaries and ministry of Life Church; our communities, region, nation and the nations of the world. Feel free to be a part of this important prayer meeting.
