Prayer Request Instructions

 

Submitting a Prayer Request

Only the Subject and the Prayer Request Message fields are required. Use a good title in your subject area  ("Prayer Request" is redundant). Please optionally enter your name (first name only) and location. If entered, your name and location will appear on the website when your prayer request is posted. 

If you enter an email address, you enable people to send you an email about your request via a web form. For security reasons, your email address will NOT be displayed on the website and the person who sends you a message will not know your email address. Your email will not be added to any email list.

Once you submit a prayer request, your post will automatically be sent to the Covenant Community Prayer Board Editor. After the editor has reviewed your request, it will be posted to the Covenant Community Prayer Board within 24 hours.  

Inappropriate Entries
We take appropriate precautions to avoid misuses of this system. Do not include a solicitation for funds. 

Privacy
This website is available to anyone with internet access. Please protect an individual's right to privacy and please do not indicate a full name, phone number, address, email address, room number, or other identifying information in the post area. For example say "my father-in-law" not my father-in-law Bill Smith at 303-123-4567. It is not necessary since God knows the details concerning every individual's life.

Length of Visibility
Requests will appear on this board for approximately 30 days. No long term archive of requests will be kept.

Posting a Praise Report
A follow-up praise report is always appreciated.  Thanking the Lord for His goodness and His answers to prayer is scriptural.

Sending an Email in Response to a Prayer Request
If the person sending a prayer request provides an email address, you will see a link titled "Respond."  This link takes you to a web form which allows you to send an email to them. As mentioned above, you will not be given their personal email address. YOUR email address will be included in your response. This response will NOT be posted on the website.

Subscribing to the Covenant Prayer Request Board
If you would like to receive an email notification when new requests are posted to the Prayer Board, click on the subscribe link after you have registered. You will then receive an email with the content of each prayer request posted to the Covenant Community Prayer Request Board. A link will be supplied in the email if you wish to personally respond to the sender of the prayer request.


Disclaimer
Inclusion of a prayer request does not imply an endorsement of the theological beliefs or endorsement of the actual request of the writer. A statement of belief is available elsewhere on this website.
