What is a Charismatic Prayer Meeting?
A “Charismatic Prayer Meeting” is a weekly gathering of Christians to give praise, thanks, honor, and love to Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior. In the San Francisco Archdiocese, prayer groups gather each week as a community of believers in the power of prayer. We pray and praise God on a one-to-one basis, as the Holy Spirit moves us. A prayer meeting is also a time to pray for the needs of others – Intercessory Prayer. Biblical examples abound: Job for his children (Job 1:5), Abraham for his nephew (Gen 18), Moses for Israel (Exodus 32), Daniel for the remnant (Daniel 9), Ester for the Jews (Ester 4-5), Jesus for Peter (Luke 22:31-32), and Paul for his kinsmen (Rom 9:1-5). If you have a need, the prayer groups of the Archdiocese will join you in praying for it. Send us your prayer request.
