"Our ordinary views of prayer are not found in the New Testament. We look upon prayer as a means for getting something for ourselves; the Bible idea of prayer is that we may get to know God Himself." --Oswald Chambers

Welcome to the Prayer webpage. Here you will find ways to get connected with the various prayer ministries of Austin Ridge, read testimonies of answered prayers and submit prayer requests for others to be lifting up in prayer. Our hope is that, through prayer, God will undergird all the work that we engage in at Austin Ridge.

Check out the various opportunities shown on this page. If you have questions about the information you might see or about our Prayer Ministry in general please feel free to call us at 263-7701 or contact Val Marsteller.

Come journey with us as we seek to know God better through prayer, individually and corporately, in order to be aligned with His vision and purposes for us.
