You can further the kingdom of God in the Yakima Valley through the ministry of prayer. We have formed a prayer link ministry with churches, community ministries and individuals who are part of the Serving Yakima Valley team.
How Does It Work?
A church who is part of the Prayer Team Link, will receive the prayer request and they can pass it on to their church body via their prayer chain or whatever means they have for sharing prayer requests to the whole body. You can share this ministry with other believers in our valley and beyond. We desire that the whole church would join together in prayer for the needs of the body of Christ and for the needs of those who are lost. Let's pray for each other and bring the needs of our community before the Lord together.

Prayer Guidelines:
This prayer link has been established because of our belief in the tremendous power of prayer. We also believe in the omniscient knowledge of God who knows the names and needs of the people we are praying for better than we do.
O LORD, you have searched me and you know me. Psalm 139:1
Please Note!!!! Due to the sensitive nature of prayer, we want to maintain a proper sense of confidentiality concerning those about whom we pray. We would therefore ask you to be aware of this by following the guidelines for submitting and praying for prayer concerns:
Please do not include the name of the individual unless you have received expressed permission from the person to submit the concern on our link.
If the person has not given permission, in addition to not mentioning their name, please include only information that is public rather than anything personal you might be privileged to know. We do not have to get specific about the circumstances of the person’s situation, i.e., we can pray for a person in the hospital without sharing the reason why they are in the hospital or we can share the need for prayer for a person’s family situation without saying or even suggesting what that need is (for example, that a divorce is imminent).
If permission for the sharing of the name is not given, please do not include so much information in the prayer request that it becomes obvious about whom we are praying.
As you participate in the prayer link, please do not try to gain any more information about the situation than what has been shared.
Thank you for your cooperation as we make this prayer link a very effective tool for use in our ministry throughout the valley.
