Does Pastors Need Prayer?

Ways to Promote Prayer for Pastors

Our Pastors need Prayer

1 => Choose one pastor and church (in addition to your own) to pray for during the Sabbath morning service each week.


2 => Put a picture of your pastor(s) in your church prayer room to remind people to pray.


3 => Distribute copies of your pastor’s preaching text to adult Sabbath school classes so they can pray for the Word to go forth with power and authority before he preaches.


4 => Involve your church cell groups in praying for the pastor(s). Create a prayer portfolio about the pastor, including his vision for the church, any expressed needs, his schedule, and his sermon texts for the next few weeks. Rotate the portfolio from group to group so that, at any given time, one group is lifting him up to the Lord.

5 => Ask church members to write prayers based on Scriptures and mail them to the pastor as an encouragement.


6 => Open the sanctuary an hour before services and invite people to come to pray specifically for the pastor.
