Group Prayer, Together — No Matter the Distance
Group prayer brings your family closer to God and to each other — even when you're scattered across cities, time zones, or just different ends of a busy week. Prayhouse makes starting a group prayer as easy as sending a text.
Group prayer in Prayhouse works by creating a shared prayer space, inviting the people you want to pray with, and sharing requests together. Everyone sees each other's prayers, can respond in real time or asynchronously, and can mark answers when God moves. It takes less than a minute to start.
Start a Prayer Circle in Seconds
No sign-up forms, no complicated settings. Invite your family, your small group, or a few close friends, and you're praying together in moments. Whether it's a nightly habit or a one-time request, group prayer in Prayhouse fits into real life instead of asking you to carve out more of it.
Share What's On Your Heart
Some prayers are easy to say out loud. Others aren't. Prayhouse gives everyone in the group a simple way to share what they're carrying — a worry, a thank-you, a name they can't stop thinking about — so the people who love them can actually know how to pray.
Pray in the Moment, Together
You don't need everyone in the same room, or even online at the same time. Add your prayer when it's on your heart; others can join in whenever theirs comes. Group prayer works the way real families do — a little asynchronous, a little spontaneous, always connected.
Keep the Whole Family Connected
For parents praying with kids who've moved out, grandparents staying close to grandkids, or a family spread across three states — group prayer is one of the simplest ways to stay woven into each other's daily lives. It's not another group chat. It's a space that's just for this.
