Prayer Team Ground Rules

1. Start small. Ask God to lead you to the right person(s). If you are planning to pray privately as well as in concert, use your head: men should pray with men, women with women.
2. You will want a prayer team that communicates quickly and easily. Therefore, find an efficient way to communicate.
3. I am part of a prayer team whose members are scattered all over the country. Once a year, we get together in person. Otherwise, we communicate via email. It works for us, but it is better if everyone can physically meet.
4. Keep track of your requests and answers. It builds faith and teaches persistence and praise.
5. When you meet, take time for members to confess their sins and be prayed for healing before lifting burdens.
6. Practice listening in prayer as much as talking to God. He still speaks.
