Prayer Request System
Set up a facility for anyone within the organisation/workplace to request prayer for any issues they would like. This could be done via an intranet site, where a mechanism could be provided for people to e-mail prayer requests confidentially to a prayer coordinator. Depending on the nature of the workplace, it could also be done by placing a prayer request box in an appropriate position – accessible but not too prominent so as to preserve privacy.
It is vitally important that such prayer requests are dealt with in strict confidence and in a timely manner.
