About us

Welcome to Circle 2 Plus Ministries, Inc.

We are a non-denominational, intergenerational Christian ministry started in Fair Oaks Ranch, Texas in 2003 for the purpose of encouraging families through prayer and Bible study.

We started as three moms with a burden to pray for our families and each other. Our first attempts were simple pleas to our Creator to teach us to pray His will for us. As time progressed, the faithful Architect of our Faith began to change and grow us in unity while showing us to pray His Word over our loved ones. Other women joined, adding depth and wisdom, and over the years we have experienced God's harvest of blessings.

Petra prayer groups are the bedrock of Circle 2 Plus Ministries. The word "petra" comes from the Greek word for a mass of stones joined together as a foundation. Petra was used by Jesus when he spoke to Simon in Matthew 16:18, "thou art Peter (petros – a single stone), and upon this rock (petra) I will build My church." Petra is joining lives together to give strength and support for today's families.

Don't kid yourself, the evil one still prowls around like a lion trying to steal, kill and destroy (1 Peter 5:8). He desires to rob us of joy, ruin our hopes and dreams, and keep God's people from the abundant life that Christ called us to in John 10:10.

Circle 2 Plus Ministries is our interpretation of Matthew 18:19-20. When two or more Children of God, whose hearts are committed to pray and encourage each other, agree with God as we seek His will for our lives, then the Father will answer those prayers and transform our lives. Joining together for prayer and Bible study will focus your mind on God's provision of healing and freedom, and bring God's perfect plan into your present circumstance. Our Creator does all the work when we submit to His will!

Praise be to His Holy Name, HaShem.

Blessings upon you, my friend. If Circle 2 Plus Ministries can be of any encouragement to you in your faith walk, please contact us. It is our privileged to pray for you and your family.

Your Sister in Christ,

Lori Houser

Faith Statements

There is only one God. He is creator, eternal, and the only supreme power. He is perfect, holy with complete wisdom, and love. He exists as the Trinity: The Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Genesis 1:1,26; Matthew 28:18-20; Revelations 1:8,18
Jesus is the only Son of God, sent from heaven to fulfill God’s desire for our reconciliation into a relationship with Him. Jesus was born of virgin birth, led a sinless life, and performed miracles. He was crucified as the sacrificial lamb for our sins, buried, and was resurrected on the third day. Jesus ascended into heaven to sit at the right hand of God the Father to intercede for believers. He will return to earth again to claim all believers as His precious bride. John 3:16; Romans 8:34; Revelations 22:12-13,17
The Holy Spirit is the comforter and helper sent to all believers to guide and direct each of us into a daily relationship with God the Father. Judges 3:10; Acts 9:31, 13:2-3
Everyone has sinned and lost relationship with God. The need for reconciliation and a mediator to help each person requires our active acknowledgment of sin and the need for salvation. This salvation is only through acceptance as Christ as God’s only Son and belief that His death on the cross paid all debts caused by our sinful nature. With the Holy Spirit we are able to continuously work toward the goal of perfection which will be made complete when Christ returns for His church. At the time of resurrection those saved through their faith in Christ will receive eternal life; those not saved will be lost into eternal damnation. Romans 3:21-26; 2 Thessalonians 1: 8-10; Revelation 20:11-15
All believers are united in the family of God to encourage and build each other’s faith in God’s promises. Romans 15:5-7; 1 Peter 2:4-5; Ephesians 2:19-22
The Bible is the infallible and authoritative Word of God. The Holy Spirit inspired it to earthly authors. 2 Timothy 3:16,17
