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.

Juan C. - Prayer candidate 120


Juan is has been homeless off and on for the past few years. He works at landscaping jobs as work is available. He speaks a moderate amount of broken English. Juan desires to go back to school to study ministry. Please pray for his health. He has had two previous cornea transplants and is in need of further eye surgery.

Update:  As of April Juan has been able to go to ministry school and has recently been licensed and ordained to do ministry for hispanic inmates in local jails and prisons. He also has a home now. He must work to support himself, which means that it would be very difficult for him to have his eye surgery. The surgery would have a very long recovery time, during which he would be unable to work. Please pray for his health and for his ministry to those in jails and prisons. He also asks you to pray that God will send a woman of great faith to join him in his ministry.
