WHAT COULD PRAYER LOOK LIKE IN YOUR COMMUNITY?

Discover creative ways to help people connect with God - through spaces, experiences, and moments that awaken hearts and make room for transformation.

Don’t Just Talk About Prayer - Create Space for It.

Too often, prayer becomes something we talk about instead of something we actually do. We tell people to pray, but many don’t know where to begin or how to stay engaged. Corporate prayer can feel one-sided, and personal prayer can seem intimidating or distant. The good news is - you don’t need a permanent prayer room or a large team to start changing that. With just a few printable stations, you can help people slow down, listen, and connect with God in fresh, meaningful ways. When prayer becomes experiential, people learn by doing- and the whole community begins to change.

Check out some of the ideas below for inspiration on how to reimagine prayer in your community!

  • Monthly or Seasonal Prayer Nights

    Once a month, turn a room into a prayer space. Set up creative prayer stations with Scripture, artwork, and reflection prompts. You can even add live worship music in the background to make it a more corporate experience. Give people time to move around the room, listening and responding to God at their own pace. Check our our prayer station printables to help you get started!

  • Prayer in Services or Events

    Integrate stations directly into a Sunday service, retreat, or youth night. Allow people to engage in prayer during worship, message response time, or a dedicated creative prayer segment.

  • Permanent Prayer Room

    Dedicate a room to prayer, that is open at regular times for people to come in and pray. Use soft lighting, gentle background music and set up prayer stations and other resources as a place for people to go and be alone with God. Rotate out the prayer stations regularly to keep things fresh.

  • Public Spaces

    Transform a wall, hallway or corner of a room into a space that’s always ready for prayer - open for anyone walking by to stop and engage. Most of our prayer stations include a no-supplies and simple supplies version for easy set up.

  • Retreats and Camps

    Integrate a time of prayer into your schedule. Set up a room for people to go to and spend time with God, or pass out individual prayer packets for them to go somewhere by themselves and pray and reflect.

  • Families and Small Groups

    Bring prayer home through creative, hands-on resources like the Family Prayer Box or Advent Devotional - helping parents, kids, and small groups experience prayer together.

  • Community and Outreach Events

    Set up portable prayer stations at conferences, community gatherings, or outdoor events. Invite people to engage in prayer in fresh, creative ways- and make sure to have gospel resources available as well!
