Prayer Support

We would love to pray for you. There are many ways for you to receive and participate in prayer at Christ Church Vienna.

Share Prayer Requests

You can share prayer requests on Sunday by talking with a pastor, or by using a Get Connected card and placing it in the collection basket at communion. You may also email prayer requests (or praises!) to Corky Eddins and the confidential prayer team.

Prayer on Sunday Mornings

We have prayer ministers available to pray with you during communion in the back of the auditorium, and after the service in the front of the church. This is a brief time of confidential prayer.

Prayer Appointments

If you would like a more extended time of personal prayer we offer appointments for prayer with a team of two or three prayer ministers. Please email Corky Eddins to tell us the best way to reach you to schedule an appointment.

Now to him who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think, according to the power at work within us, to him be the glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever. Amen.
