How to host an online prayer meeting

Answer · Updated

Pick one place people always go (a link on your website), show the time in each person's own time zone, remind them before it starts, and give them a way to send prayer requests. You can lead on Zoom, Google Meet or an AltarPage broadcast; AltarPage puts the meeting, the reminders and the requests in one place.

Choose how people will join

  • Zoom or Google Meet, when everyone should be able to speak. AltarPage creates the link in one tap and hides it from spam bots.
  • An AltarPage broadcast, when one or two people lead and everyone else listens and prays along: no time limit, little data.
  • Both: leaders on the call, everyone else on the broadcast. See broadcast a Zoom or Google Meet meeting.

Help people turn up

Your site shows each meeting in the visitor's own time zone with a one-tap Join button, so members abroad aren't an hour late. People who follow you get a reminder before it starts, and a "we're live" alert when you begin.

Prayer requests and follow-up

Members send prayer requests from the meeting page or while listening. Your follow-up team sees them under Follow-up, and new believers are followed up within minutes.
