Senior Adults Ministry

I will praise you with an upright heart as I learn your righteous laws. Psalm 119:7
The ministry for the Senior Adults of Asbury believes God is calling them to extend His love in concrete ways not only to those within our church, but also to the unchurched Senior Adults in our community. These goals are accomplished through prayer, study and other activities, with the anticipation of God’s blessing and a renewed relationship with Jesus Christ. The results of this emphasis will include spiritual growth and fellowship for Senior Adults inside and outside the church. The Senior Adults of Asbury participate in several service projects during the year including working with the Cookson Hills Mission, collecting vegetable seeds and school supplies and are developing a project with the Boys Ranch in Gore.

Prayer Ministry

“My House shall be called a House of Prayer”. Matthew 21:13
The Prayer Ministries mission is that Asbury will become a prayer-saturated church by assisting every believer in experiencing an intimate relationship with The Lord Jesus Christ, expressed through a life devoted to believing prayer both individually and corporately. The Prayer ministry is a place for the Asbury community to bring their prayer needs as well as a place for the body to corporately pray over Mission trips, Pastors, and specific areas of emphasis within the church. The Prayer ministry provides quiet places to pray throughout the Asbury campus as well as people who can pray with those in need.
