• Purpose: To be an instrument of prayer by faithfully presenting before the throne of God the prayers and petitions of our leadership, our congregation and those around us that we would minister to. To under gird our brothers and sisters through intercessory prayer. To empower individuals to enter into a closer relationship with God as they seek God's direction and vision for their own life and for Castleton Christian Church (CCC).
• Facets include:
  1. Prayer Room: Individuals volunteer to pray before and throughout the Sunday morning worship service. It is our goal to have two or more volunteers praying every time the congregation meets.
  2. Prayer Concerns List: This is in the form of a "newsletter" inserted into each Sunday bulletin. The purpose is to encourage and uplift members of our congregation that have prayer needs for themselves or others.
  3. Prayer Chain: An immediate call to prayer through telephone calls from one member to another. The purpose is to encourage unity with one another through prayer during times of deepest, and most urgent need.
  4. Cards of Encouragement: Each week cards are sent to members and/or friends of members to express words of encouragement and spiritual uplifting.
  5. Prayer for Leadership: Individuals are asked to pray for the Pastors and Elders during their monthly meeting.
  6. Prayer Walk: A weekly walk to pray throughout the neighborhood adjacent to the church, saying a prayer for each house in the subdivision.
  7. Future ministry programs: Issues Prayer Group, Prayer Partners Program, Prayer Breakfasts, weekly Prayer Service, and classes to expand CCC's understanding and commitment to prayer.
