Connection 7: Prayer Support (Part 7 of 7)

This is a two-part process: The individual receives prayer and prays for another. To make this truly a new connection point, the people should be outside of the small group, mentorship, serving, and support group systems (of course it is a good thing for prayer to occur inside those circles). Weekly contact calls from one to another to remind the people that they are being prayed for, and to ask what specific prayers are requested builds a strong bond. In return, the person being prayed for is assigned a different person that they are to pray for. The successful connection is made when people look forward to calling and asking others how they can pray for them. The advantage of this connection is the long-range intimacy it creates between people and the connection with God through prayer.
