Let’s pray
Prayer is foundational to the Christian life and a vital part of HOPEWhangārei.
There are various opportunities for corporate prayer, for example “Thy Kingdom Come” during May. Please see Facebook or the latest church notices for details.
We also offer a number of opportunities for personal prayer. Many find their needs met by prayer in Connect Groups, by the Prayer Net, or through Prayer ministry at services.
For some their need is greater and can be best met by an in-depth ministry session.
Prayer Care
Prayer ministry is offered at Sunday services as part of HOPEWhangārei’s commitment to offer authentic, personal and Biblical prayer-care.
Sometimes people feel a need for prayer. If the Holy Spirit touches you in this way please do not hesitate. He has done it for a purpose and He will meet your need.
At all sites, the Ministers, Elders, Connect Group leaders and Pastoral Care team are available when needed at these times.
At HOPECentral, those commissioned to pray with members of the fellowship wear a yellow ‘Prayer Care’ name tag. They minister through the power of the Holy Spirit, in the name of Jesus [Acts 16;18]. Prayer ministers move to the front of the church during the closing of each service and are trained to offer confidential and caring prayer for all needs.
Prayer Net
A team of dedicated people are available to pray for individual, group or corporate needs. Should you have such a need, or want to acknowledge an answer to prayer, this can be quickly circulated by email. Please contact the Church office during office hours, Monday – Friday 9am – 2pm, 09 438 1667 or email info@hopewhangarei.nz
In-depth Ministry
If you feel your need for ministry cannot be met through prayer at the Sunday services, please contact the Senior Minister or the Prayer Co-ordinators. We have a range of prayer and freedom ministry teams available.
Freedom Ministry
Scripture’s emphasis is that God wants his people to be free from those things which limit them in any way, so that they are free to live in full the life He desires for them. Sometimes there are experiences in people’s lives which limit their freedom to live such a life.
These limitations may be through things others have done or by our own actions.
Personal ministry sessions are offered in Whangarei through people trained and released by BREAKFREE – Victorious Ministry Through Christ [NZ] https://www.breakfree.org.nz/
