At Garden Sanctuary, prayer is understood to be the crucial
building block of a strong church fellowship.  Of course, it is
important that each member develop and practice a strong
individual prayer life, since regular communion with God leads
to peace, understanding and wisdom, as well as strength to
battle the enemy.

Beyond that, opportunities for corporate prayer are provided on
a regular basis.  Our church prayer team, under the leadership
of Larry Coleman, plays a support role for all such programs.
An opportunity for open prayer is available each Sunday afternoon
at 5:00 PM in a previously-announced church location. 
At least once a quarter, a 24-hour Prayer Vigil takes place from
6:00 PM on a Friday until 6:00 PM on Saturday.  During this
vigil at least one volunteer is in the main sanctuary praying
at all times.  Volunteers sign up to pray for a minimum of
1-hour increments.
