Pray for your neighbors

This page shows one real prayer request at a time, in large type, from somebody in a real American town. You read it, you pray for it, and you move on to the next. There is nothing to learn and nothing to join: no account, no name, no email asked for before or after.

What happens when you pray for one

Tapping the button records that somebody prayed, and the person who raised the request is told that a stranger prayed for them — never who, and never where you are. The same tap lights their town on the national prayer wall, which is the same set of requests shown as a map rather than one at a time.

The page works through the requests that have been waiting longest and prayed for least, so nobody sits unprayed-for while a newer request collects hundreds. Your phone quietly remembers which ones you have already seen, so coming back tomorrow does not open on yesterday. That memory never leaves your device.

Asking for prayer yourself

Anyone can raise a request, for themselves or for their town, without an account. Every request is read by a person before it appears anywhere — this is a national wall, and it goes to strangers. You can ask to be told when somebody prays for you, and you can say afterwards that the prayer was answered, which moves it out of the asking and onto the answered page.
