Pray for the WorldA light on the map for every prayer.

Tap Pray when you begin, and a light appears on a shared world map for as long as you pray. You see how many are praying with you, where, and for what. There is no timer. A prayer lasts until Amen. Free, with no ads.

Today we pray for

Every day the whole community prays for one country. This is today's, and you can begin here.

The days ahead

The country is the same for everyone on earth and changes at midnight UTC. In the app you can tap any country on the map to pray for it, or simply pray for the world.

Nothing is sent from this page. In the app, your light would be on the map while you pray.

In the app

We pray together, and can see it

●The live map

Everyone praying right now is a gentle light. Countries warm to gold as they are prayed for through the day.

1One country each day

With prayer points for its leaders, families, children, the church, the persecuted and the poor.

♥Carry each other's burdens

Share a prayer request or a word of encouragement. Tap “I prayed” and the person who asked will know. When God answers, everyone who prayed hears the good news.

16weeks of your journey

Your time in prayer, your daily rhythm, a calendar of the last weeks and the countries you have carried.

Private by design

Your light, as near as you choose

There is no sign-up. Your light shows near your city, only in your country, or not at all: you choose. Your exact location never leaves your phone, and your name is never shown with your light.

Every post is checked before it appears, and anyone can report one. You can delete everything at any time.

Since 2021

Made new in 2026

The first Pray for the World came out in 2021. This is the second, made new in nine languages: English, Español, Português, Français, Deutsch, Svenska, 한국어, Bahasa Indonesia and Kiswahili. There's a home-screen widget too, and a gentle daily reminder if you want one.

“A prayer lasts until Amen.”

There is no timer to beat. If you put your phone away, the app waits thirty quiet minutes and then asks, gently: still praying?
