Call to Prayer
In times of uncertainty and anxiety, we seek the One who is our rock and foundation. And in times of joy and gratitude, we turn to Christ, our focus and center. Through prayer, God speaks, and we listen.
You are invited to join a Covenant-wide Call to Prayer, an opportunity for our denomination to unite together in prayerful dependence upon the Holy Spirit.
Join us as we focus on prayer. Multiple options to engage include:
- Week of Prayer
- Virtual Monthly Prayer Gatherings

Prayer resources, sermon series guides, and updates will be released throughout the first half of 2023. Click below to be notified as resources are released.
Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.
– Philippians 4:6

Week of Prayer
Deeply Connected
As we begin a new year, we seek to be connected to God and to each other through prayer. These seven meditations from seven Covenanters invite us to reflect on biblical figures who model a posture of prayer. The Week of Prayer can be used by individuals or groups, over one week or over the course of seven weeks. Feel free to customize the resource for your context, adding your own prompts to further enhance the discussion and enrich your time of prayer. Above all, let us join together as the Covenant Church to listen to and wait upon the Lord.
Prayer expresses praise and thanksgiving, confession of sins, confidence in God’s forgiveness, supplication for our own needs, and intercession for the need of the world. – The Covenant Book of Worship
Sermon Series
Deeply Rooted
Prayer is a continual back-and-forth conversation with God. It comes from a deeply rooted place that is honest, trusted, and even tested. But sometimes, as followers of Jesus, we ask ourselves, “Does prayer work?” “Is God listening?” “Am I praying the right way?” “What should I pray about?” This six-week series will explore how Jesus teaches us to pray, how prayer can influence our communities, and examine other powerful prayer moments in Scripture.
We invite all Covenant churches to participate in this series from May 7 through June 11 as we prepare to join together at the Annual Meeting. Click below to view or download sermon videos, corresponding notes, discussion guides, and spiritual practices. Please feel free to use whichever Deeply Rooted resources best fit your context.
