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.

Louis R. - Prayer candidate 108


Louis is 44 years old and has only been homeless for a short time. He and his wife Linda are both deaf. Louis is able to read lips and communicate with others to some extent; however his wife Linda cannot communicate verbally at all. This deaf couple became homeless when rent increases made housing unaffordable on their very limited disability income. They hope to move into an apartment shortly. Louis has a very serious heart condition and has undergone heart surgery. His wife Linda also suffers from heart disease and has blood clots in her legs. Both of them are on high doses of blood thinners which makes continuing health care for this couple a necessity. They have a very old van which will not last much longer. Louis asks that you pray for their health and for furniture and household essentials to set up a new home.

Update:  Through the help of several local Christians, Louis and Linda have been able to move into an apartment in public housing. They have been blessed with furniture and household items. Please pray for God's provision that they will have money to pay their utility bills and other expenses.
