Note[]

  • The style of the prayer time varies, some common methods are:
    • Pray together in silence or say it out load
    • Pray based on Bible passages i.e. read a passage and pray about it and repeat, for more information please google or read
    • Follow the ACTS - Adoration, Confession, Thanksgiving, Supplication
    • "Popcorn" ie. whenever one is moved to pray and one designated person to close praying in turn for a designate individual. Short prayer is the key! can "pop" more than once
    • Breaking off into smaller prayer groups,
    • Praying in turn for a designated individual (ex. person to your left)
  • Some things that were done in the past:
    • Worship during prayer meetings (1-2 songs)
    • Sharing about the importance of prayer
    • Read a passage in the bible
    • Sharing about God's leading in your life (challenges, thanksgiving things etc.
    • Coordinating joint prayer events with other CCF or Christian campus groups (One year, the prayer coordinators met monthly from all three CCFs and there was a joint prayer meeting once a month between the three groups as well as an all campus prayer meeting once a term. This ended up being slightly overwhelming for the prayer coordinator at the time, but may be something to consider again in the future.)
