Prayer Altars
Inspired by a dream where the Lord was highlighting the Lord’s Prayer with the witness of Psalm 23 and John 17, we feel the Lord calling us back to the beauty and simplicity of taking communion and praying the Lord’s Prayer - as families, with friends, and in solitude, the Lord is calling us into union with Christ.
At the heart of this journey is the concept of the Prayer Altar—a space dedicated not just to prayer, but to deep communion with Jesus. Here, we engage in what we call "communing intercession," a profound practice that involves meditating and praying through the phrases of the Lord's Prayer. This approach is not about presenting a list of requests but about entering a dialogue with our Father, allowing each phrase of the Lord's Prayer to guide us deeper into God's presence.
Today, God is inviting us back to this sacred place. Whether in our innermost being, our homes, our workplaces, or within our broader community, He is calling us to reconvene at His table. From this place, we will pray.

Here’s how you can begin:
Who — You can create a Prayer Altar alone, or with your spouse, your family, friends, or church.
What — Set aside an hour a week to come before the Lord in intentional connection through communion and purposed intercession, modeled through The Lord’s Prayer.
Why — When asked by his disciples how to pray, Jesus gave a very simple teaching on how to set our heart before our Father, and how to interact with Him, as we pray phrase by phrase. We believe Jesus, our Great Intercessor, is highlighting His teaching once again as the model for effective prayer. Our goal is not rote prayer or decrees, rather we believe each phrase is an invitation to dialogue with the One who loves us best and most. Full of expectation, we come to present ourselves to the One who speaks and answers.
Where — You can create a Prayer Altar anywhere, but we suggest committing to a specific place, whether that’s in your home, office, or church.
How — When you register your Prayer Altar, we will send you a Prayer Guide to help you engage with communion and The Lord’s Prayer for intercession.
