Welcome to prayforthehomeless.org. This site offers you the opportunity to meet someone who is homeless and pray for them. We also include people who have recently been homeless and are in recovery from homelessness. They all have one thing in common: they need the power and blessings of your prayers. A small percentage of the homeless are able to stay in public shelters or other temporary accommodations for short periods, but the majority of these people sleep in abandoned buildings, warehouses or under bridges each night. We invite you to pick a different person to pray for each week and share this idea with a friend. This site is in the process of development. You can expect it to grow and change over the coming weeks and months. We invite your feedback and comments by email at prayforthehomeless@gmail.com.


We have added a feedback feature that allows you to click to indicate your committment to pray, write or email others. Providing this response will let others know which homeless have many people praying for them and which ones are still waiting for prayer. At the bottom of this page click on "OLDER POSTS" to see more homeless prayer candidates.

Anthony D. - Prayer candidate 110


Anthony is 50 years old and is originally from Tupelo, MS. He has been homeless for a the past few years. Anthony has a very quiet and gentle spirit and is an active participant in Bible studies in the day program at Church of the Reconciler. Anthony has had tremendous progress in his battle with alcohol addiction and has been able to test drug and alcohol free for the past year. He has recently obtained an apartment through Shelter Care Plus program at the church and is setting up house keeping in his new home. Anthony is very excited to be next in line to be hired for an opening at Piggly Wiggly. The number of places he can apply for a job are limited by the fact that he has no transportation and the city bus system doen't go where many jobs are located. There is also no bus service on Sunday. He asks that you pray for this new job opportunity and his continued progress in recovery from homelessness.
