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.

John C. - Prayer candidate 105


John is 62 and suffers from bi-polar disorder. He has a cheerful disposition and sparkling eyes. He also suffers from painful arthritis in his shoulders which keeps him from being able to carry very much food at once. John also has a fractured right foot that didn't heal correctly. This prevents him from being able to walk long distances. He receives a small Social Security disability check each month which is not enough to pay for an apartment, food and medicine, but it does give him enough money to stay in a vey small old downtown motel room for most of the month. He doesn't have a home, but at least he's able to stay dry and warm most of the time. John asks that you pray for his health and for the health of his friend Charles who is suffering from cancer.
