Prayer Groups at Monroe Street
The founder of Methodism, John Wesley said this about prayer:
"All that a Christian does, even in eating and sleeping, is prayer, when it is done in simplicity, according to the order of God, without either adding to or diminishing from it by his own choice."
At Monroe Street, we believe that prayer is powerful and that it helps to connect us to one another. We offer various opportunities for persons to come together for prayer for intercession, for spiritual formation and for fellowship with one another and with God. All of our prayer groups are open to anyone and we encourage folks to join us. If you are interested in any of our groups, please contact the person listed.
