Prayer & Care Ministry

Let us be a source of care and support for you.

At CSL Northern Colorado, our Prayer Partners offer powerful and effective prayer support to anyone seeking counsel. Our Prayer Partners are here to affirm and know for you that your highest good is unfolding right now, in every aspect of your life, regardless of any external appearances or circumstances. Whether you desire radiant health, fulfilling relationships, career success, financial abundance, or anything else, we believe that all good things are possible through our alignment with Spirit.

When you seek prayer support from our community, you will be connected with a Prayer Partner who has dedicated their life to understanding the truth about our spiritual nature. We recognize that each of us is a blessed and unique expression of the Divine, and through our partnership with the One Mind, anything’s possible. We’re here to support you on your spiritual journey, and to help you discover the truth of your own inherent power and divinity.

What is Affirmative Prayer? (Spiritual Mind Treatment)

If when one prays their prayer is a recognition of Spirit’s Omniscience, Omnipotence, and Omnipresence, and a realization of our unity with Spirit, then their prayer is a spiritual mind treatment.” ~ Ernest Holmes

Affirmative Prayer is a scientific form of prayer that recognizes God/Spirit as the invisible source of all Life and that we each, as individuals, are one with that Life. The affirmative prayer process reawakens us to the Truth of our essential perfection and oneness with the I Am. That “new” awareness allows us to manifest the outcome(s) we desire. There are no limits to what we can achieve through prayer.

What is a Prayer Partner?

Our Prayer Partners are also called Practitioners. The word practitioner may be new to you, and it simply means that these designated people practice the Science of Mind principles at a high-level.

Spiritual Practitioners are prayer partners who provide loving and prayerful support to assist you in solving problems and experiencing greater good in your life. They work to help you understand your challenge and its cause, and then, through the use of spiritual principles, meditation, visioning, and affirmative prayer, spiritual laws are set in motion to resolve your issue and help make positive changes in your life.

Having participated in extensive training to develop themselves into being Consciousness-On-Demand, practitioners are licensed to practice professionally by Centers for Spiritual Living and skilled in using Science of Mind principles and especially Affirmative Prayer. This requires a minimum of three years of class work and practice having actively demonstrated their understanding of New Thought principles. They must pass a written paneled exam before licensed ministers and Practitioners.

What is shared in a session is never discussed with anyone except where the Practitioner is required by law.
