How to Join Prayers for Pets

How to Join Prayers for Pets

1. Decide in your heart that you can abide by our membership requirements.

a. Belief in God - specifically this means God, the creator of all, as
recognized and worshipped by Judeo-Christian religions.

b. Belief in the power of prayer - specifically this means prayer to God (as above). This does NOT include positive thoughts, zen, "white light", "rainbow light", etc. While we have nothing specifically against most of those things, one of the two main purposes of this group is to glorify God and to give Him credit for answered prayers. (The other reason is, of course, intercession for those who need prayers.) If you believe in those things in addition to actual prayer, that's fine. But PRAYER is the focus of this group.

c. Love of animals.

d. Concern for pet owners.

e. Willingness to pray sincerely, promptly and often for those that need us, regardless of what the prayer need might be, as long as it is a legitimate request.

2. Please read and be familiar with our posting guidelinesposting guidelines. Most of them are not strict or rigid, but you should be aware of them. A few of them, however, can make the difference between your post being allowed or not. The list is currently semi-moderated.

4. Membership in Prayers For Pets is restricted, meaning the list moderator must activate your membership before you can post or receive list mail. Before she will activate it, she must receive email from you stating that you have read and agree to these requirements and the posting guidelines.

If you don't complete this step within 14 days, Yahoo will automatically delete your membership application, so please do it right away.

You will get a welcome message in your email as soon as your membership is activated, and you're in! Please read your welcome message carefully and save it somewhere for future reference. If you don't get a welcome message, or if you run into a problem, please email the list moderator at "kgs @ prayersforpets.org" (delete the quotes and spaces) and I'll try to help. If the list moderator is away for a few days there will be a delay in receiving your welcome message, so please be patient. Normally it arrives in a few hours.

Once you've received your welcome message and you know your membership has been activated, don't worry if you don't get any list mail for a few days. Sometimes traffic is very slow. Other times it can get pretty active.

5. All signed up? Whenever you're ready, send your first post to PrayersForPets. The address for posting messages and prayer requests is PrayersForPets@yahoogroups.com (usable only by list members). We encourage you to post a note introducing yourself, but it's not a requirement.
