The communion of saints means that we have a "common unity" with all saints past and present. No where does the Bible imply that anyone other than God can hear our prayers. If you find a scripture for that one then please, by all means, tell me; it's not there. When Paul tells us that we should intercede, he doesn't say that anyone else can hear our prayers, he just means that we should pray for other people. I think the Word of God is pretty clear on this one.
As far as prayer being more than worship, I can see that. But all prayer is still fundamentally worship. When we ask for supplication, we do it in worship, if it is not worship, then it is a vain request. When we lament, we do it in worship, just as David did in many of the Psalms. If we lament in a way that is not worship, then we are purely pouting, and not lamenting to God.
Grace to you.
