Nowadays many people don't know anyone who might pray with or for them. Prayer services exist to fill this need. In times of confusion or darkness, it is good to know that you are not alone. Prayer services are a tool for you to use when you need someone who cares, in this case a trained pray-er, to pray for you.
Prayer works, as recent scientific studies have proven.
Telephone prayer lines, or prayer services, exist to take advantage of these scientific facts. The men and women who answer these telephone prayer lines are experienced and trained pray-ers. There are both national and local prayer services that you can call when you need someone to pray with, or for, you. Some, such as Silent Unity, are large, well-known organizations that have existed for many years and are credited with many miraculous and documented answers to prayer. Other prayer services may be local, perhaps a part of your community's church or spiritual center's service to your community, but all exist solely to pray for you and are valuable resources for you to turn to should you desire the prayers of others.
