Join our Prayer Ministry Team
Do you feel called to lift others up in prayer? Hudson UMC is looking for compassionate, faith-filled volunteers to join our Prayer Ministry Team!
As a team member, you will:
- Call church members weekly to ask for their prayer requests.
- Pray throughout the week over their needs and concerns.
- Be a source of hope, support, and spiritual connection.
- Strengthen our church community through the power of prayer.
No experience needed—just a willing heart and a desire to serve! Training and guidance will be provided.
Prayer Partners
We are forming a network of pairs who will pray for each other throughout the year. Being a prayer partner offers a meaningful way to support someone through consistent encouragement, care, and connection with God. It deepens your own faith while building a relationship rooted in trust, compassion, and shared hope.
Bearing each other’s burdens, celebrating each other’s wins, and growing in faith and friendship. Sign up below.
Lunch & Labyrinth Walk
Tuesday, May 19 at 12:00 noon
(rain date: May 20)
A Labyrinth is a single life-size circular path, which always leads to the center. Certified labyrinth facilitator, Susi Kawolics describes this ancient form of prayer this way: “Walking the Labyrinth is a type of pilgrimage toward transformation or enlightenment. It allows the mind to relax and become aware. We emerge more awakened, focused and peaceful. We feel more optimistic and more connected.”
The labyrinth walking group will meet for lunch at Cowboy Food & Drink before proceeding to the labyrinth for a quiet, reflective walk. ALL ARE WELCOME!
