Yo. I’m loving this little app that we’ve installed on the 8BIT Network. Seriously.
We’ve had a steady growth of prayers being left around the network and it’s been fun to hear a little more about what’s going on in other people’s lives.
I really do feel that this blog has “upped” the level of community and has begun to provide a small bit of “care” for each other.
Neat, right? Well, the Eric and Cleve are going to be giving a copy away to one lucky person here on ChurchCrunch!
All you have to do is comment below on where you’d install it and why you’d love to have it!
*smile*
I would install Prayer Engine on our new church website that is being developed. I’ve already shown Pastor how great the Prayer Engine was. This app would bring a new element to our site that would definitely bring a community feeling aspect to our church members and reach out to the many who watch our services online.
I would install PrayerEngine on our church’s website to help put more of an emphasis on the importance of prayer among our congregation.
This application is terrific. We would use it to make a seamless tie between our online ministries and our care ministries. We as a staff have considered several options when it comes to prayer…from the automated forms (not a fan of since it removes the ‘human’ element) to the ‘real person’ (which can become burdensome for a person or even a prayer team). What I like about Prayer Engine is that it can be integrated in several ways into an existing site and ultimately into an existing system of staff management…making it manageable and effective.
We would install it on our cloverhillag.org website. Our mission is to reach our zip code for Jesus. We’ve seen an increase in attendance and with it the personal needs of families needing prayer continues to increase at an fast pace. We have doZens of intercessors but the communication is one sided. You share the need via email, we pray. How awesome for the team to be able to engage with the owner of the needed saying “hey I just prayed for that”
We would love to install the PrayerEngine on our media ministry website – drinkfromthewell.com. Having just launched the media and television ministry several months ago, we are already in four markets and on satellite. Dr. David Swanson’s messages are reaching thousands of people each week and it continues to grow. But the prayer requests are getting larger and larger each day and becoming difficult to manage. So we would love to put the Prayer Engine on the website to help facilitate this growing ministry.
This is great! I’m also working on our church’s website and we’re launching several projects for our country, the Republic of Moldova. One of them will be an online prayer wall, and we’re looking for something like a CMS to work with it, so that’s where I’ll use it. Thanks. God Bless.
I’d put it on The Pursuit’s Facebook Page. The Page already gets a steady flow of revisits and it just needs that little something to really drive it through into better community. Plus this would be really cool to see it adapted for Facebook Pages- maybe it could be an app!
awesomesauce!
Our church is currently revamping our website and moving it to the much more flexible, or at least easier to control/update, wordpress site. Problem is ministry resources are tight and so myself, a college pastor, is taking the reigns in revamping the site.
I truly think this prayerengine would be an AWESOME addition especially to help drive users to the site as well as give them a reason to continue to return – again – budget is tight so to snag this sucker for nothing would be GREATNESS!!
Love what you guys do!
We are rebuilding our church Web site right now and this would be a great addition to the new site. We had been looking for something like this to meet this need online, but hadn’t really come across anything as clean and beautiful! We would love to showcase this app on our site!
I would install it on our ministry site and would love to have the ease of prayer request functionality.
So i am going to resort to groveling
We are a ministry that reaches far with very little resources. 90 countries, 10k on our emag list and conferences in Kenya, Europe, South Africa, Australia & the US each year to equip those reaching the skate culture. Our main purpose is to reach skaters by equipping and encouraging those with a heart for skate ministry….building and encouraging the body to do the great commission using a piece of wood & a Bible as tools. Our websites and social network pages are visited by those in ministry and skaters alike. We get tons of prayer requests and have an active prayer warrior team going.
We’d be soooooo stoked to be blessed with this. It would make the ministry we do so much easier and help us to better steward our time (we all are tent-makers and just LOOOOVVVEEE these kids and thus passionately pursue this dream the Lord has given us with full-time jobs, families, etc.) So, we ask with faith and hope. This would be a HUGE benefit to help us minister to skaters, families and those ministering to youth and skaters around the globe.

Man, we would love to have a tool that helps us GROW prayer & miracles. We’re a church plant (2 campuses so far) in Detroit. Raising the level of HOPE in our city is our mission.
We would put this application on our website: http://hope4detroit.com and I would probably also add it to my blog http://iChilly.com
Thanks for giving us a shot!
I would hook this into our church’s website. We’re trying to further develop and increase the discipline of prayer in the life of our church this year. This would be a great tool to get people interacting, praying for each other, and then being able to hear the response. It would be great to have a tool like this instead of having to cobble together and coordinate a bunch of different input/response methods. Thanks!
I would use it on my Everything is Permissible blog. It’s developed to be a place to discuss Christian dating and relationships. Relationships are on the minds of everyone. I would use the Prayer Engine as an incredible tool to offer to those who are dealing with relationship struggles now or in the past.
It would also be great to add to our church website… like everyone else. The prayer requests currently received from our church website (westonroadchurch.com) get lost in the thousands of junk mail we receive in our info@ email address.
On Lifetime.org. About 5 years ago I built an add-on for our prayer community that allowed people to post requests and click a link to notify someone when you pray for their requests. Very simple, but we have outgrown it. The prayer engine app would be a perfect fit for us.
I was checking this out the other day & love the idea of this. I would look to put it on our church website.
sorry – and as to why – I really would love to see online community come together for us. People still seem a bit reluctant, and I think prayer could be a great access point for people to join in.
I’d love to install Prayer Engine on our church’s website at mountainvalleychurch.net. We’re a young church plant and I’d love to leverage this to engage our church and community.
I was unchurched growing up, and I’m currently building a team to do church quite differently. I believe Jesus is reaching many people who will never enter a church building – but who also think “praying” is cool. Our team will invite people around two cities – Baltimore and Norfolk to small group worship, authentic, etc.
This prayer module would be another in-road to reaching people who won’t got to church. And it will focus our prayer team on the ral needs of people hungering for power beyond themselves.
Thanks,
Sandy
We would install it as part of our online campus (www.cbconline.tv), connecting both the local congregation and our remote members together in prayer and helping our staff share prayer needs from each area of our ministry. I’ve been looking for a solution like this for a while now, it looks great! I’m especially excited about adding a live prayer feed to our online ministry page.
Would install it on our church’s website! We’d love to integrate it in!
I’m intrigued by this application. I would put it on the church’s revamped website because it would make it more useful for everybody. Members and visitors. Bring it!
Within the next month I’m going to start a social networking/community site for ministry leaders. I’m using BuddyPress, the very awesome plugin for WordPress to make the site as awesome as possible. One feature I really wanted to have on the website was a prayer requests area, and this would be a whole lot better then a forum!
WOW!!! let us know when it launches!
I’d try to put it on our new church website. Launch date of March 5. I’m stoked about it. Total wordpress. I’ve come a long way obi-wan
About a year ago I started telling the church planters that I worked with that someone should develop a prayer page on their website similar to the Prayer Engine. I absolutely love that someone has developed this. It is a wonderful idea and I can’t wait to use it. I would implement this on one of the websites for the church plants I work with. This would be a great way to develop a prayer DNA in a new church.
I would love to win this app to install for our small baptist church to utilize. I think this could help our congregation stay connected better during the week. Thanks for giving away a copy…that’s awesome.
We do a prayer chapel on Wednesday nights (http://www.thrivechurch.ws/?chapter=52)… we’re a fairly small church, but we’re pretty techy. We cycle prayer requests on the screen with intermittent scripture during our prayer “jam”. Currently, we have a prayer_list.ppt file stored on our DropBox that I update as people send in prayer requests, but there are a few problems.
First, there is no method for removing “old” requests. Second, there is no way to give/get “feedback” on the requests. Finally, it is a very “manual” activity, with no way to know people need prayer unless they come to the prayer chapel or I remember to send out a prayer list.
I’ve been looking for a more interactive system, and have been considering rolling my own (time-eater) ever since I first saw ChurchCrunch’s coverage of PrayerEngine. The problem is the cost is about twice what the leadership team would want to spend on something like this.
haha, my post read as “we are techy because we cycle prayer requests on the screen” haha – that’s not what I meant. I meant, “We are techy, so we would welcome this type of product…. “
I don’t have anywhere to install it, but hooray for free stuff!!! Way to go Eric/Cleve/8BIT!
I’d love to be able to put this on the website of our student ministry. Everything I’ve learned about building websites has come from wanting to create the best online tool we can to connect the teens in our community. This would be a huge help in that!
I would def put this on our church website! We have a weekly prayer meeting at our church, but only about 15% of our Sunday morning congregation attends. Our prayer list is pretty lengthy and there are so many prayer requests that we can’t give them all an equal chance in devoted prayer during 1 1/2 hour service; there arent the people and our pastor is only one person, who needs prayer for his own ministry and family, and so many times we (as a congregation) expect him and the elders or deacons to be the only intercessors for our requests. I think the prayer engine would totally help our church with our prayer ministry. It would allow us as a church ot reach out to each other across our many generational gaps and it would allow us to be confirmed that we have people praying for us. So many times you always wonder if when you ask for prayer, that that person really went out and prayed for you. I know I have been guilty of not fufilling my promises to pray for others b/c of simply forgetting. I know having the Prayer Engine would not let me forget to just stop and pray for some requests posted. I’m always online and would always be updated. We have such a large amount of our church (i would estimate 75%-80%) that have Facebook and Twitter accounts and they are updating and checking ‘comments’ and ‘requests’ far more frequently than ever before. People would download the app def to their phones too! We could definelty use this for our church! The Prayer Engine is an answer to prayer!
Hi,
I am really interested in having this free giva-away, I myself have a christian website called jesus4usall and have a prayer request facility and I would love to try this free givaway as I believe it would help us pray for more people and also increase our prayer team.
Can you help?
Thanks
Yours in Christ Jesus

My church website is the only platform that I have. Prayerer engine’s cosmize feature will help make the site specific . A great tool for reaching out to others.
We host a prayer shop in the centre of our city in The Netherlands, Europe since 2007. The prayer engine looks so perfect and so tweakable that it must be possible to use it in a different language context. This tool would be great to give people from around the Netherlands the opportunity to post their prayer requests on our site. The request would become available on our prayer tree in the 24/7 prayer room which is accessible 24/7 365.
This tool would be really great to use!!
