Pill is a funny name for a place. We have heard every joke about our need to keep taking the tablets and does our CSM write the announcements on tablets of stone?
One advantage of the name Pill is that it is memorable and it is our hope that once they get past the very obvious and usually tedious jokes people will then immediately make the association, "Oh that's the Corps that prays!"
The line of the song “Prayer is the Christians vital breathe” is often quoted to give weight to the vital nature of prayer for the individual but at Pill we see that this is absolutely true corporately as well. We are finding that praying together draws our own community tighter together but at the same time helps us touch a wider world.
At the Hall 
In the hall there are two designated areas for prayer. The upstairs Prayer Room is usually themed and there is a quiet area set aside in the corner of the hall which is particularly useful for those who are unable to access the Prayer Room. These are available for use any time the hall is open and on request.
Daily
A Prayer List is issued quarterly and identifies a different group of people connected to the Corps to pray for each day.
Weekly
There is an early start Prayer meeting on Tuesday mornings and a Prayer Walk around the village on Wednesday evenings. These prayer meetings also provide a Prayer Shield for a group of Christians in

Fortnightly
Pill is transitioning towards becoming a Cell-based Corps and prayer is at the heart of our Cell Groups which formally meet fortnightly. Prayer is essential to the worship focus of a cell group and also part of our strategy for winning the people the group know whom they long to see come to Christ.
Monthly
Prayer features strongly in all our worship meetings but one Sunday evening a month we have a Prayer Focus. Usually this involves teaching on a different aspect of prayer such as Petition or Intercession.
