An awesome new tool for praying geeks
I’ve been part of the private beta for People2Pray for a while now, and I like it a lot. So much that I really wanted to tell everyone about it (and get people I know to sign up for it), but since it was in private beta, that wasn’t really practical. Happy me this morning when I found out they opened it up for public beta. So go sign up already!
A little more about what I love about it:
- It’s all about making prayer intentional and trackable. This is very much like a traditional prayer journal, but ideal for those of us who lose those under the bed but look at our homepage(s) every day.
- Aside from the prayer-journal-like-benefits (perspective, consistancy, etc.), the tech aspect of it adds extra features: sharing, communities, connection with others, and most importantly, a means for prayers to rise all over the globe, no matter where you are.
- They’ve really thought through the public/private aspect. You can make a request private, public, or share with just a specific community or person. This is very important to me, as I make most of my requests public, but there are some that need to be private for the protection of others.
- This may be just the kind of collaborative tool that our church needs. We’re currently using a Yahoo! Group, but I’d love to migrate to People2Pray—and I think it will help most of our prayer warriors personally, too.
Is anyone interested in creating a community for shared requests?

I know isn’t it fantastic, I set up a group for the readers on my blog. It would be good to get friends and family members using it as I am sure there will be many “geeks” (including me) who will be the first to use it.
Hello Mrs. Sarah,
I was looking on saltyfish recently and stumbled across your network of blogs. It’s always a blessing to find a fellow Christian. I too would have to admit I’m a hypocrite, something I need to work on as well (in reference to one of your blogs I believe).
Well it’s rather late on my end, and time for bed, but I just wanted to leave a note and encourage you to continue following God in all things. May he continue to bless you,
-Joshua
Check out http://www.worldprayerteam.org for a great virtual prayer session. I will look into this software as well.
God bless and good job with the Carnival today.
Here’s another great virtual prayer site - http://www.peoplepray.com/ - you can do public or private prayer journaling and have people all over the world praying for you. Cheers, and God Bless!
