Welcome!
Prairie Faith Shared Ministry
“Be gathered into one in You”
Welcome to Prairie Faith Shared Ministry. Located in north central Kansas, four ELCA Lutheran congregations have stepped out in faith to enter into a truly shared ministry. We strive to provide the best tools for our members to grow as disciples of Christ and to proclaim the Good News of Christ within our communities and throughout the world. We hope you will join us at one of our churches for service on Sunday to experience for yourself the fellowship of Christ.
Join Us
We have four congregations and worship with a variey of styles and liturgies. We encourage you to find out more about our congregations. Hope to see you in worship soon.
Our Pastor and interim Pastors/PMA’s rotate into different congregations during the month. Lay leaders also serve each congregation at various times. This is done to establish a working relationship between the Pastors and all the congregations of PFSM, as well as between the members of our congregations. Joint congregational worship services are held at various times during the year to provide fellowship between all of our members.

A prayer shawl is a tangible gift representing the many and continuing prayers for comfort, caring, healing and love offered for an individual experiencing a difficult time for various reasons—serious illness, grief, loss, emotional trials, or spiritual upheaval in their lives. If you know of someone in the community who might be comforted by receiving a prayer shawl or blanket, please contact Nancy. There are several options for delivery of a prayer shawl to your friend, neighbor, or family member—you may request one to be prepared and then gift it yourself, request the pastor to deliver it, or request Nancy to deliver one.

Spring cleaning on your mind? Don’t forget to sort through your medication cabinet for expired prescription medications as well as over-the-counter meds, vitamins and supplements. It’s not safe to flush medications down the toilet or throw them in the trash. In WaKeeney, persons may take their expired medications or prescriptions they will not be using to the law enforcement center any time to be placed in their disposal box. You are also able to use a medication disposal box throughout the year at the Hays Walgreens pharmacy during pharmacy hours. Nancy has small Deterra medication disposal bags available at no charge for your use at home, as another option.
