Word-Share-Prayer

A powerful yet simple tool.  Our gift to you for visiting the VCI site.
This process invites you to take a little time (only 15-20 minutes) before any meeting of a board, ministry team or commitee to "be the people of God before doing the work of the people of God."  Word-Share-Prayer is designed to lead a group through three sacred moments of engagement with God and with each other.

  • Word - reading scripture anew and discussing new and old insights into what God is revealing
  • Share - sharing the blessings and concerns of life
  • Prayer - praying for each other with gratitude for blessings and requests for concerns

Scriptures selected for the Word-Share-Prayer address spiritual concepts such as:

  • Blessings
  • Grace
  • Spiritual Gifts
  • Sharing What God is Doing 
 
  • I am Sending you
  • Humility
  • Confession

 We have found it helpful to create one-page studies to open a meeting. For longer Bible studies, simply increase the length of the passage and the time allowed for each of the three sacred moments.  Below is a list of in Word document and PDF formats.
