GUIDELINES FOR PRAYER LIST PUBLICATION
Prayer requests may be publicized in our weekly Enews and/or monthly Reporter newsletter. If you do not want your request publicized in these newsletters, please indicate that on the form below. If you do give permission, please follow the guidelines below.
“The basic principle of a right to health information privacy that is foundational to HIPPA should be honored by churches. Churches should also be aware that the fact that HIPPA does not apply to them does not mean that a church or its individual members are immune to lawsuits over the unauthorized revelation of false medical information and sometimes even accurate medical information about an individual that is made public without their permission.” (https://baptistnews.com/article/hippa-and-church-prayer-requests)
