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.

Johnny O. - Prayer candidate 109


Johnny is 53 years old and suffers from addiction to alcohol. Although he is only 53, his health is that of someone at least a decade or more older. He has difficulty with tasks you would normally take for granted such as being able to hear and interact with automated telephone services or being able to read the telephone directory. Johnny stays wherever he is able to find shelter at night from the elements. He asks that you pray he will find a home and some sort of work, as well as for his health.
