SLHS Prayer Group
Thursdays 7:15am-7:45am @ SLHS in room 127
Contact: Dr. Tami Seddon tseddon@slhs.com
SLHS Prayer Group exists to bring the cares of SLHS before God is in prayer. It strives to thank God for the gifts He has given and intercede on behalf of the school, staff, students and parents as issues arise. Each week, we praise God for one of His attributes, pray specifically for our own children, and pray over
the general requests under each of the categories of SLHS, Faculty, Staff, & Board, Students, Parents/Guardians, and Sports & Activities.
We would love for you to join us in weekly prayer for SLHS, whether as part of our group or individually.
Our weekly format is organized so that an individual can lift up in prayer, the same weekly requests as the on-site group, in a time and place that works best for them. The general requests are organized by the week of the month and category. For example: the first week of each month, we pray for the W1 requests under each category. The second week of each month, we pray for the W2 requests, and so forth, so that we cover each of the requests, student grade levels, and Faculty, Staff, and Board members, about once a month. We have been blessed to see first-hand this living and active truth from
