> What is the Lift Prayer Application?
The Lift Prayer Application implements the tools necessary to facilitate a 24/7 Prayer Ministry. This prayer network is comprised of individuals at Valley serving as "Watchmen." A Watchman is a prayer warrior answering God's call to commit to pray for others in their local church or around the world. Each Watchman prays for a designated hour of their choosing each week.
The Lift Prayer Application enables users to:
• easily submit prayer requests
• post updates or comments to a request
• subscribe to a request in order to receive updates
• search prayer requests by topic or date
• indicate that you've prayed for other posted requests
• see current and past prayer requests in order of least-prayed-for
• log in as a Watchman and start a Prayer Session where you'll be presented with a scrolling list of
prayer requests to pray over and make notes along the way
• assign yourself to a time slot on a “Wall” in order to pray through requests weekly
Join Valley’s Prayer Wall today and watch what God does when His people pray!

> Who can view online prayer requests?
Prayer requests that have been checkmarked in order to be listed on our Web site and printed list are available for anyone to view when they navigate to the Prayer Requests page on Valley’s Web site. Private requests — those that were not checkmarked to be listed on the Web site and printed list on the Prayer Request Submission Form — are only viewable by a few staff members. This software application does not allow specific requests to show up on a Google search.

> Who can submit a prayer request online?
The Prayer Request feature is for members, attenders and friends of Valley Community Baptist Church. All requests must be approved by the administrator before they are published. If you have a question regarding a request, please use the Contact Us link or contact Lynne Gucwa, 860.673.6826 x108.

> Can I submit an anonymous request?
We do not recommend that you submit an anonymous request, as we need to be able to contact you to verify information in the request and follow up with care when necessary. Anonymous requests will be handled on a case-by-case basis and might not be published. We will not publish anonymous requests submitted on behalf of another person who is not a family member.

> How soon should I expect my request to appear on the Web site?
Requests will be published daily by 5 p.m., Monday – Friday, except for holidays. With an urgent request, please contact the church office, 860.673.6826.

> Why has my prayer request been edited?
Valley reserves the right to edit each request published on our Web site for grammar and appropriateness of content. Requests may be shortened or edited to remove last names when a request is submitted on behalf of another person who is not a family member. Please contact Lynne Gucwa, if you have questions about your request.

> Why is the pray request that I submitted not showing up online?
If you submitted a request, but did not check the box at the bottom of the request form to give permission to list the request on our Web site and on the printed list, the request will remain "private." Only those designated as moderators or administrators will have access to view those requests. To change the status of the request to "public," contact the church office, 860.673.6826.

> When I submit a request, will I be contacted about my request to receive care?
