Prayer for the World App

Facebook App/Iphone App

A way to link the church and individuals to the modern world net. Hopefully to promote prayer for one another, and to unite Christians around the world in prayer. Example, when Haiti is struck by an earthquake, this will appear in everyone's email and on the app and people can pray around the world together. Also Your local church in your community can post prayer requests such as urgent medical requests or maybe a speaker is going to speak at a local highschool. As well as your friends posting they have a midterm that is coming up, or to remember to pray for people that you have committed to. This isn't to replace QT time or prayer notebooks, but is great for the growing online community, and as people are on computers more and more each day, is nice to have on facebook or in the background as you go to work. This app will also raise awareness of Christ's call for world missions as simple as receiving prayer requests among from your friends, your community, your nation, or the world.

App allows friends to submit prayer requests.

App displays friends that have this facebook app.

Requests are updated by individual users.

Requests can be made by you to remind yourself.

You can view your friends' prayer requests by clicking on your friend.

You can also pray for each friend either daily, monthly, or yearly (easily customizable).

The app will display what prayer requests you have decided to pray for the day.

The app will send you an email each day to see who you are supposed to pray for.

Prayer requests can have a timer such as midterms or events that are going to happen, can be weekly or ongoing.

Eventually hope to partner with major Christian organizations and to even small churches. Clicking on the prayer app on their website will let you sign onto facebook and then you can select how often you wish to pray for that event. Organizations can fully customize prayer requests up to editing a calendar with different prayer requests each day. These prayer requests are available on a calendar and can be viewed daily by friends or as often as they appear in their feed.

Prayers can be updated by text messaging.

Prayers can have statuses such as urgent, moderate, or ongoing.

Praises should also be included.

Prayers should also be grouped by groups that you join such as location Los Angeles and other things, UCLA, etc...

You can subscribe to pray for random people either in the world, or by region or school.

Your prayer requests you can click a box that allows strangers to pray for you, by a group you are in (Los Angeles, UCLA, ICA, or public)

Hoefully will like up to prayer for the world, and we can send prayer requests daily, monthly, or weekly by your commitment to the app and by email. This will pray for different regions of the world, mostly countries, or maybe individual ministries around the world. Inspired by:http://www.operationworld.org/

Is there a better site out there? Everything looks really outdated and unprofessional that I can find. Maybe IHOP?

Hope to be up to date with things like Passion Conference, or Kyrgyzstan civil war. etc... [requires moderators or can partner with some global Christian group]

A blog feature that allows you to either subscribe to blogs on the prayer app to appear in blog, or for blog posts to appear in the app.

Should feature good privacy settings.

Maybe even our own website one day?
